I read a book called "The Last Full Measure: How Soldiers Die in Battle" and in that book, which traces warfare from ancient times (through the Iliad) to modern day. In the WWII section, there was one frightening statistic: 50% of all casualties were caused by indirect fire.

IRL, arty is used to break stalemate and apply pressure on the enemy. In COH2, arty is used to wipe enemy squad at HQ when they retreat or used as a long range sniper cannon (B4, LeIG, Pak Howie). Frankly, vCOH do indirect better than the mess of COH2.
