1st Ukraine Front - Insiders look at a Play Test

[JDR Dragoon]

Should artillery positions be spotted up to four km behind the front lines with visibility at only one km? I have had a nagging feeling this lack of a tie in with the turn visibility conditions was a flaw in the CB OR.

In WW2 enemy artillery is detected through triangulation of sound and flash and the measuring of the impact area of the shell (which will tell you something about the angle it had when it impacted the ground). You generally didn´t spot enemy artillery for CB fires through direct observation except perhaps through spotter planes.
