Artillery Bombardment Tactics Cards

[Dick Berg]

I had some questions about the use of these cards:

1) Allied artillery in sea landing boxes cannot bombard the adjacent land zone, correct?

2) Can artillery locked in combat (co-located with enemy units) bombard? (Seems odd, especially since the guns would have to be turned on adjacent zones.)

3) Can artillery bombard a one containing friendly and enemy units? (Bombers cannot bomb such a zone, so it again seems odd that artillery would be allowed to do so.

Thanks

I think the answers are either no yes yes or yes yes yes, not sure though.

1) No. A beachhead is not a "zone" so it can't have an "adjacent zone." (Or, if you prefer, the beachhead is "adjacent" to the water.)

2) Yes. The artillery is free to fire, just like a blockhouse locked in combat can also fire to sea.

3) Yes. Artillery is more precise than bombers.
