Confused Use of Assault Artillery (or Tank Guns in general) against Infantry

Hello,

despite the availability of newer Games and having an high end PC somehow I always come back to Steel Panthers .

But ive always asked myself how to use large caliber guns (especially assault artillery like the Sturmpanzer IV 15cm or the SU-152) against infantry positions. Even when firing from full halt when the vehicle was stationary a couple of turns and beeing inside the effective distance, I inflict way more casualties with small arms fire than with the big guns. Most of the time I end up expending all my HE-Ammunition while causing only a handful of casualties at best.

Can you tell me how to use large caliber guns against infantry? I understand that there are some guns that fire Shells with a very small amount of HE-Filler but to fire 15+ 50pound projectiles without causing a single casuality seems a bit odd

Thank you for your help!

Phillip
