Based on the parameter data dialog you posted earlier, a D quality unit firing at a unit in a Forest+Trench hex would hit for only 10% damage (30 Forest+40 Trench+20 D quality=90% fire reduction). A C quality unit would fire at 30% value, which is not so hot when you have mostly regular infantry units with average soft attack values.

Scenarios with high terrain and fortification fire power reduction values can suffer from more issues with alt fire than scenarios where those values are lower due to the alt fire already decreasing losses for small units.

I agree that firing once with artillery is nice, it also makes sure you can't use artillery to cherry pick as many targets as possible for Disruption rolls.
