Question: Do commanders impact artillery damage? - Big Dawg - 08-15-2010

I have a RS scenario that has an extra high level commander (strength 4) and I do not know what to do with him.

I could have him assist in the infantry attack but was also wondering if he occupied a artillery unit hex would he impact the damage of that artillery piece?

Thanks guys!

I don't think so.......only direct fire weapons get the modifier.

Hey Rob,

What if it is one of the Japanese direct fire cannons? :conf:

As long as the weapon does not have any indirect fire capabilies....

Some of the Jap guns fit this description.

The direct-fire only cannons (most of the "infantry" guns, I think) should get the bonus.
