Viking, I am currently in the captial, Raleigh, doing studies, but I am originally from the eastern part of the state near the towns of Greenville, Rocky Mount, Wilson, and Tarborro. So to be short, I am from the boonies (probably that's an American term). And talking about good targets, if the USA were ever involved in a future war on our soil, NC would be a great target. We have an air force base, a marine base, a coast guard base, an army base I think and who knows what else. Oops did I just say that out loud? Hell, we even have one of the largest if not largest blimp facilities in the USA. Pixel, ROFLMAO!! I'm surprised no one called him on this besides me. I guess that's the advantage of knowing nothing; you question everything. I do know APB is all points bulletin. Maybe your partner is giving all your units nicknames. I'll go check out the arty post now. ... Ok I had already read his initial post. That thing is amazing. I wish everyone read it. I even found myself quoting from it to help out other new players like myself. A couple of things that I find to be slack in that post. Does being in the same hex as the ammo source have any difference than being adjacent? And secondly, he mentions the newbie mistake of plotting arty that no longer has ammo. He provides sufficient knowledge about not running out of ammo, so am I to assume that the way to prevent yourself from making this mistake is to not run out of ammo? Or am I just going to get the obvious response of, "To not plot empty arty, always check the supply first," or "Confuscious say, 'know one's ammo quantity.'"
