Default Re: Appropriate artillery for Russian Battalion?

Thanks guys- That core started in Finland with a regular rifle co. instead of partisans, the regulars were called away to ride herd on a bunch of conscripts when the Fascists invaded.

Bob-I tried the ACG and fire and fury websites earlier, from the American OOB thread, but just couldn't get the information out of them that I wanted Thanks for the summary :thumb:

Imp- that's exactly what the 152's do, counterbattery and emergency taskings.

Shifting gears and reequiping from the Winter War to GPW proved to be a lot harder then I expected, at least while maintaing any semblance of a storyline. I don't pretend to be any kind of history fanatic, but I do like build a reasonable story behind my forces, why they are what they are, special equipment, ect.

Thanks again

Matt

Mobryan probably a general rule of thumb would be 1 or 2 mortars per inf com. Per 3 inf com add 120mtrs or a battery upto 122mm max. Ignore your tanks for arty assigned or maybe add one batt if have a lot. By batt I mean troop 1 spot 3 or 4 guns not 12-16 guns. You can then add extra support for none meeting engagements based on the needs & these can be larger than 122s or rockets. You will not realisticly normally get huge amounts for a force your size.

Finnish troops having no good armour to deal with the russian armour.
Why would you use heavy Aty.?
They can never get close to burn them
The Finns did'nt do it that way,
they ambushed!
