Maybe I'm overthinking it, but with a ME scenario you are given somewhat of an objective (location at least). Being that the map grids are known to arty, it seems realistic for a commander to suspect certain areas and order some type of barrage on them, and then adapt to the flow of battle... The part I'm not sure about is the advantage of having a general idea of the enemy's direction of travel...
