I have yet to figure out how to use the Soviet Artillery Divisions...do they automatically support attacking/defending units? Should you manually use them to bombard at range before you attack? Should they be stacked with friendly front line units? Thanks.

When you select units for deliberate attack, you can also select independent artillery units up to one hex away (non-adjacent IOW) along with the infantry/armor.

You can also put them in reserve to support defense according to the reserve rules but to have any chance at all of participating they need to be attached to the same HQ being attacked and that HQ needs a leader with high initiative.

You can also do purely artillery based attacks without engaging front line units. I suspect these do a decent amount of disruption to the axis, so one pattern may be to attack with artillery alone and then in co-operation with regular combat units.

Or purely on their own just to cause disruption and attrition.
