AA and Artillery

[bipman]

Hi all

In the game, how are AA and artillery units used?  I presume AA units automatically fire on aircraft overhead but as to artillery, do they just fire on the opposite hex or can they fire indirectly at other hexes?

Hi bipman,

I can't say much about AA units because I don't remember, but if you are interested in my perspective re artillery, see my post (and related posts/discssions that can be found in it) here: http://dogsofwarvu.com/forum/index.php/topic,3089.msg12079.html#msg12079

My general feeling is that artillery is somewhat underrated in terms of what could otherwise be an interesting added value effect in the context of combined arms...

I have to also say that I haven't given up on this great game...but I have put it on hold while I wait to see what Ron will come up with to improve it in terms of artillery effects and the ability of the AI to choose different attack modes. If you are interested on my perspective on this, see: http://dogsofwarvu.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=193

Cheers,

Hmm interesting.  Thanks for the info and I hope Ron does get this into 1.09!  Still a mystery on the AA though.
