"Whose motorcycle is this?", "It's a chopper, baby.", "Whose chopper is this?", "Zed's.", "Who's Zed?", "Zed's dead baby. Zed's dead." - Butch and Fabienne ride off into the sunset in Pulp Fiction.
Yes, but mortars can use exploding or carcass shot, which I think are more effective in the game than they were in real life. With 3 batteries of mortars and howitzers I've nearly wiped out the garrison of a fort. In the game round shot from cannon is pretty much useless against forts except for battering down the door.
It is nice to know not to target unit standards! Something I have likely done in the past, just because it is easier than picking out the unit.
Area bombardment was indeed mentioned before release…it doesn’t mean everyone has seen it though.
Most things in the game could be better documented, that is true enough.
Mortars and Howitzers are much more accurate than cannon and round shot are just very big bullets. Shooting into flanks can kill more but it is not devastating until there are better ammunitions.
Education: that which reveals to the wise,
and conceals from the stupid,
the vast limits of their knowledge.
