Yeah, very useless tech. It would be much much better if your troops actually did advance, though. Instead they fire a volley, move about two steps and fire another. I would prefer they fired a volley, hustled a fair distance, and had then had the other group fire another volley and do the same. I envisioned a kind of "bounding overwatch" when i first read the description of the tech but when I used it i started laughing and immediately turned it off.
To use it, just hit the button or use the hotkeys and click to attack the unit you want to fire and advance towards. Watch as your guys are outgunned horribly.
