Is Motorized Rocket Artillery useful?

[SplashCode]

I've never researched it, and wondered whether I should.

Well, it is usefull if you want to give your fast-moving divisions some extra soft attack and breakthrough.
They also are cheaper to produce then Self-propeled-guns and cost less recourses witch is also a plus.
But they dont have the armor Self-propeled-guns have, so in general its up to you.

You can get them pretty early, they're pretty powerful, and they have decent breakthrough which SPGs tend not to have.

I used to always skip them, but if you're going heavily into tanks then they're worth it.

Motorized rocket artillery is great! Besides being cheaper as already mentioned, they have a higher soft attack than SPAs. I'ved used them with cavalry and motorized divisions and just watched the disorganized enemy retreat.

use different ressource than normal artylery and is more offensiv oriented.
if you like support compagni arty+rocket help a lot

[Guara Ookami]

its op af if you do terminators their template is 4 mediuns 4 mechanized 2 MOT rocket arty and all support companys with that you are unstoppable.

[Sohei]

Yeah they are pretty good. You can also optionally double up on support artillery.

As soviets you can research them ahead of time with your motorized advisor and stock up on them. You can also get the rubber you need from allieds who are on the same side with you.

Thanks to everyone!

I tried them and found that they slowed down the division to walking speed. I mean, my motorized division was at 12 speed and soon as I added a motorized rocket launcher it dropped to 4. I stopped making them or even researching them after that.

So, maybe I did something wrong?

normal rocket launchers go at speed 4, same with artillery and other crewed guns, but motorized artillery should be a ton faster (around 12kph I think too).

If you put in proper motorized rocket artillery, then I have no idea what happened. A screenshot of the division should help to clear it up.

All line arty was bugged a few patches ago but I thought they fixed it. Maybe not.
