Is this Gamey??? - HoseJock - 06-25-2012

This question pertains to ME QB's. If I set up arty to hit what I deem as key enemy positions 5 or 10 min into the battle (not setup zone), before the time starts, would that be considered gamey???

I've never really found a good answer for that. Many have asked about it. Personally I dont find it gamey.

5 or 10 minutes after beginning and not setup zone - for me is OK...

Maybe I'm overthinking it, but with a ME scenario you are given somewhat of an objective (location at least). Being that the map grids are known to arty, it seems realistic for a commander to suspect certain areas and order some type of barrage on them, and then adapt to the flow of battle... The part I'm not sure about is the advantage of having a general idea of the enemy's direction of travel...
