Arty, Discourages Camping? (Not Hate Thread)

The_Chieftain: Artillery loves stationary targets, and hates moving targets.   In theory, someone hugging a rock/building is an easy target for any artillery with half a brain. The artillery piece comes with tracks, but too many arty drivers seem to forget about this, and hide in the same place near spawn, not moving to get shots. As a result, there is a perception that hugging certain rocks or buildings will provide protection.   However, on the occasion that the arty driver has half a brain and moves to get that shot, he's now facing off against a stationary tank trying not to get hit by artillery. Easy target, tank blows up, complains about OP artillery.   The counterpoint to this is that too many tank players are worried about damage to their own precious vehicle, and forget that as long as an artillery piece is focusing on him, there are 14 other team mates that the artillery is -not- focusing on, and the -team- had better damned well be taking advantage of it. Of course, too many tank players don't go this far either. And any tank is survivable against artillery, even T95.
