Arty Promotes Camping - Doh

The_Chieftain:   I decided to download his replay, which is entitled "T92 vs Campers," and proceeded to watch him click on people from that corner for literally the entire game. He still hasn't gotten spotted. I bet he's about to, and I bet he'll die when it happens!   edit: I just noticed the enemy artillery got lit but didn't die. Wonder what happened there? Does... does that mean artillery doesn't always die if it gets spotted?   With respect, what difference is it whether the artillery moves or not if the issue is whether artillery can hit targets who remain in the same general area? But it's not my 'defacto' style of play. Go to 46 minutes in, same stream, for something more my style. The JT which died on our side at the end instead of killing the Waffen after I attempted to engage it with direct fire? One who decided to hang around in exactly the same spot that a red M53 blew up his last ally only a minute earlier, thus making himself an inevitable target for artillery. A fact noted by the chat, if you have chat replay plugin. (And remarked upon by me in voice, though that has been suppressed by Twitch's anti-piracy software)   It is perhaps instructive to note my response upon dying to artillery on the streams as well. Usually it's along the lines of "Well, I should have seen that coming" or "As usual, I hung around too long"   Edit. Well, since this thread seems to thrive on generalities like "Arty can hit scouts moving at 800 yards...", why not generalise based on the fact that artillery tends to be at the disadvantage when spotted
