Sorry for late reply. I was busy fighting the Japanese in Guadalcanal. Almost overrun by them. Thanks to Don & Ketch.

If the arty is plotted on hot spot, the delay is 1.0 turn. Using the tactic mentioned, the delay will be 0.0 (e.g., AI shows up when delay falls to 0) or 0.1 turn. That is no delay (0.0 or 0.1). Of course it will only fire in the next turn. That is the best you can get.

Or you can shift arty with your FO when the delay goes down to 0~0.5 (delay of 0.5 or below means it will fire next turn). No need to turn off tubes and no sound if this way is used.

Ironfist, what do you mean by "hot spot?" I can think of various interpretations to that. If it is in regard to the pre-plotted points that I've seen in scenarios, then I have couple of questions...

1 - Can you set those up during a generated battle, or do they have to be built into a scenario?

2 - If they can be set up in a generated battle, how do you do it? (I've been through the Game Guide under artillary and haven't seen this. I could be blind. I could have forgotten. I could be very much wrong.)

Priority target hexes are available to everyone. They are NOT a " CD only " item
