RE: The verdict is in
During Beta period we tested the arty in one of the Hamich scenarios. I think it was "First strike at Hamich" because we had good figures from Charles MacDonald's Siegfried Line Campaign.
At first the % was higher and the artillery casualties where too high. When Wyatt set it to 5% the losses to artillery were remarkably close to what happened historically. This could have been a coincidence, I don't know.

Personally I'm not so happy that the smaller calibre weapons are also included in the %. I can imagine that it may not be programmable in detail though. I would like to see some future changes in artillery; an observer system, as discussed earlier and a separate ammo level.

Here is another discussion recently from the matrix boards:
