Phantom Artillery

[alaric99x]

Hi Harry, I'm retired Army too, 21+ years, Ordnance Corps. What you're saying is correct, but the issue here is a little different. The fixed artillery units, and other units, in this and some other scenarios shouldn't really be on the map. The designers wanted to represent reenforcements coming on the map, but, instead of bringing them on as reenforcements, they placed them on the map at the start and decided to release them from fixed status at a later time. So even though they are present on the map, and in range to fire on enemy units, they are, in reality, really on the road farther back to be released from fixed status at the time when they would normally be reaching the map edge. What you're talking about is units that are in some reserve position waiting to advance. Of course, those units would be firing support on all enemy units in range that they have grid coordinates for.
