Rocket Artillery Truck Deployment

[Bulbous_Bufalo]

How do you get the rocket truck to deploy? I don't see a button to set up to fire. I tried force attacking and moving forward but I can't get the thing to fire even with a clear line of sight to the enemy. What am I missing?

The HIMARS? It does not auto-attack ever. due to the ammunition costs of a single barrage, the HIMARS only fires on deliberate command.

Meaning you select them, you press F (or whatever the force attack key is for you or click the UI button) THEN you click on the grid coordinates you want gone.

Fair warning: DO NOT call this danger close to your own units. I am not joking when I say it deletes grid coordinates.

Yeah turns out the HIMARS erases everything in a region. These ones are also INSANELY inaccurate compared to real life HIMARS

Ohhhhh, the circle is a minimum range not a maximum, isn't it.

the red circle is the minimum range. it can't fire in that but in most maps you can comfortably hit any corner of it with minimal movement

Real live himars is mostly accurate cause of gps guidance. I am pretty sure it is currupted and like that they shoot more out of hip.

We still have advanced guidance and fire control systems in the event we lose GPS.
