Default AAR of RT: The Breach added to AAR section

Not as fully detailed as I wanted, but (with my "Observations" section) useful, I think.

Can anyone give me some suggestion on how to make field arty more successful in killing enemy ADA positions? I can usually destroy with artillery only 2-3 out of the 6 positions...not good enough.

A few tips on arty.

1. DPICM is more effective than HE
2. Mass on targets. Fire as many guns as you can at one time on each target to ensure destruction.
3. Indirect fire + direct fire > indirect fire alone
4. PGM is the ultimate killer. If you can get a laser observer within 5km, that is your best chance of a kill.

Patrick,

Thanks;
From what I can tell from some other forum threads, HE is for troops and DPICM is for vehicles (including ADA sites), correct?
I did try most of your tips, with the exception of #4. I fired several PGM rounds, but did not realize that I had to have a laser observer near the target.

I have recommended HE for dismounts in the past, but only to conserve ammo. DPICM will obliterate troops, it is just overkill in most cases.
