normal bonus -1 such that a 50% profile covered which (if I recall
correctly) is a -4 to hit - changes to a -3 to hit as a "Stance

sideways to fire stance).
I'd go with the equivalent of -1 size modifier, since that's the
approximate reduction in target area, which means a -1 to hit.
But when calculating modifiers based on the Size and Speed/Range table, you
figure the target's mod by its longest dimension. In the case of humans,
that would be height. A 6 foot tall man, is still 6 feet tall even when
turned sideways.
The main exception to that rule is for objects that are much smaller in one
dimension than the others (the example is for a very long, but narrow
cable). I don't think humans qualify for that.
