New Army "Caliber Configuration Study"

[cory]

As I said, I have no experience here to rely on. I do know that grunts die when people without eyes on the scene make decisions about indirect fire, so maybe the answer lies with a completely new system.

Maybe the action commander needs to lead from the front, so he can call in appropriate assets!

That's ideally how it works. You have a Forward Observer attached to the lead element calling for fire and directing the Mortars and Artillery onto the target.
