Calling Artillery

[ShoutingDog]

Need help regarding artillery commands please:

1. At my command - how does one make this work? I can set the box up and it appears as usual. Unfortunately I cannot figure out how to give the command to fire at a later time when I want it to fire.

2. Adust fire. How do I move the box before or during the barrage?

In neither case does clicking or right clicking on the arty box do anything and that's all I can think to do.

What's the secret?

your stuck in Sb1... thast the secret ;)

you sit in the unit as ex TC, up in the menues ontop of the screen you have support... click there and you have "call fire" and at the same time a list of weird numbers ...

"At my command" uses those weird numbers (they are names for arty calls)

when you use at my command, you prepare a strike against that area.so you can preplan maybe 5 strikes, then you just pick that strikes name in that menue and it starts the time ticking for that call. wery convenient if you spend allot of time as TC.

adjust fire is done from same menue, klick on the call you like adjust and from the small boxes in that list add or drop. left or right that amount of meters it needs to move.

There is a good tutorial RecceGD did in downloads section somwhere, look it up and try it is my suggestion :)

Thanks King... :luxhello:

And you're right - I am still stuck in SB1 - haven't played it for at least 3 years but having played it regularly for the preceding 4 I guess old habits are indeed hard to break. :biggrin:
