I vote yes.
Towed artillery can help flatten a town, but it needs aiming and if you make it require a FOO then it won't be too easy either. Also the artillery is pretty open to air attacks (a new target for mud thumpers).




As an Airborne Forward Observer, I cant agree more. I would LOVE to sit some where calling artillery in using an accurate model..... I bet my Field Arty rank soars--- and yes, we would need a new score group for Field Artillery...

Just seems like its way overdue. Just think, FA has been in warfare since the beginning. Boulders and flaming balls of tar were the early ammunition. Thanks for all the support, maybe we can get this thing rolling.

Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

With this along with it.  No point and click accuracy like ship guns' clipboard-assisted aiming.

Well if we get Field Artillery i want this:

German K5(E) 280-mm

Country of Origin: Germany
Caliber: 11.02 inches (280 mm)
Barrel Length: 70.08 feet
Overall Length: 135.28 feet
Weight in Action: 214.59 tons
Elevation: 0° to 50°
Traverse: 2°
Shell and Weight: HE; 563.38 lbs
Muzzle Velocity: 3,700 fps
Maximum Range: 38.64 miles
Notes: This was one of the best workaday railway guns ever built. The K5(E) formed the background of the German railway artillery force during World War II and saw wide use. Two examples of the K5(E) survived World War II. One K5(E) is on display at Cap Griz Nez in France, the other "Anzio Annie" (above) is on display at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds Museum, Aberdeen Maryland. This particular gun is the one that was used in the shelling of the US troops during their landing at Anzio, Italy.

Yes - it should be allowed, but only if it was towed into action by a KubelWagon  :P

Here we are, living on top of a molten ball of rock, spinning around at a 1,000mph, orbiting a nuclear fireball and whizzing through space at half-a-million miles per hour. Most of us believe in super-beings which for some reason need to be praised for setting this up. This, apparently, is normal.

This might be easier to implement. It's on a Panzer IV chassis, which we have already;.....I think it's called "Das BRUMBAR". (Sorry Lusche, my German sucks).



While you're looking, anyone know what this little "GEM" is?
This isn't a quiz. I don't know the answer either.
