worst barrage is Time on Target but the major barrage is no great shakes either. really, despite being prolific, most of the american artillery globals are meh or bad.

Time on Target is at least useful against OKW trucks, Major barrage would probably deal more damage if it was a bunch of mortars firing randomly at this point or was a neutered Ostheer off-map Leig barrage.

I think it should come down faster (fixing the values) and cheaper to make up for USF's lack of heavy indirect fire.

I think 75 munitions is a fair price.

Also agree that Panzer Commander, Sturm officer, Artillery Field Officer, need buffs.

[NDA] is absolutely fine though.

I think Major arty should change to mortar strike: more accurate, less damage like the vCOH Wehr officer's mortar strike.

They could make it similar to Pinpoint Artillery from Ardennes Assault, it's basically smaller barrage but also much small AOE so it's more like Precision Shot at the cost of not being particularly powerful.

Or unless that's exactly how IR Pathfinders work, then the completely opposite. I don't know since I don't own that commander.

So to answer OP's question, I suppose it's both bugged and needs fixing, and bad to begin with.

ToT is ONLY useable against OKW trucks and howitzers and it super cost ineffective.
