Artillery Guide For Foxhole 

According to NATO doctrine, the order "Fire for effect" is given when ranging and adjustment is satisfactory and is the order to begin the full fire mission. Slight slip in terminology, but an awesome video. I'd love to get involved in some arty teams

"Fire for Effect" is an order given when the artillery has zeroed in on their target and then rain hell.

Errors: - This is excluding Mortars which is the lightest class of arty. - Light Arty and Field Arty are the same class, and are faction dependent - "Fire for effect" or "Hammer Down" is normally used to mean fire as fast as you can, not ranging - (?) does not include rocket arty. (?)

“As long as you’re within 5 millimeters you’ll be fine” XD Love that. I play a bunch of 40k, so I make the same mistake.

As someone who has been in the artillery battery, fire for effect is a call given once you are satisfied with the impact site. Meaning you don’t adjust the gun. Fire for effect means “release the Kraken.” It’s often right after 2-3 ranging shots. Usually, a double direct hit is instant “fire for effect.” “Danger close” means you are shooting into friendly. “Check fire” is the same as a cease-fire. I’m fire. I’m missing some terms since it’s been a while since I was on a gun line, but yep. I noticed someone posted the nato doctrine definition so that is that too.

been as a spotter for countles operations i call this a decent tutorial video however fire for effect is when you unload all shells as fast as possible you normally call out to gunners to fire 2 or three shots for rangeing shots first second the arty calulator is a recent thing added,and therefore i used to look at the map ingame and work off the grid system i still go by this way as i see it far quicker to use and im allready accustomed to it

Finally, a good up to date artillery guide. Keep it up :)

Arty teams always needs an extra hand! Don't be afraid to lend one!! Great video!

Great video tutorial. Good explanation, entertaining and structure. Some minor errors which have been pointed out already. Two things I'd like to add is storm cannons which fall into its own category (not lumped with the 150mm) since they are superweapon level threats and can fire cross region and mortars which weren't mentioned. Thank you for the rundown! 😁

Man I got to be honest I usually calculated in my head in game and use 1 shot guess were shell lands it's very hard way to spot but makes you feel a real spotter in someway

I would play the shit of naval game like this set in ironclad/predrednought era with empires fighting over colonies and trade routes

I'm new to this game and it became clear immediately that everyone is so nice and eager to help new players learn to play. I've been reloading artillery, hitting god knows what, but it's fun.

Just an fyi, “fire for effect” is the command given after the spotter has corrected the fall of the shell to the position where he/she wants it to land. The call “fire for effect” means singular spotting shells are no longer necessary and it’s now time for the battery to fire repeatedly and en masse onto those coordinates to bring about the desired “effect”. Generally that desired effect is the interruption, forcing to cover, or annihilation of the enemy within those coordinates.

I was a forward observer when I was in the US Marines and its kinda funny hearing how artillery works in games. We would say fire for effect only when we have adjusted rounds on target. I wonder how that lingo made its way into the game. This looks fun.

One of the best and wholesome tutorials i haave ever seen, Rob is gonna be a big entertainer one day.. Keep up the good work and thank you! subbed!

You also forget one of the most valuable and seemingly least used effects of artillery on many fronts. Destroying the enemies moral and will to fight. Your single gun might not destroy any of their buildings but if you keep killing the infantry over and over again people will leave making your teams push easier.

Had a great experience firing the 120mm with my regiment but I'm still confused on how to adjust the azimuth

Update: new type of artillery: self propellled atillery, and also field guns can be towed

Time to watch this video, while my backline logi is collapsing.

I dont even play Foxhole, but holy shit very nice tutorial! :D

use c to grab and c again to deposite

I forgot there are arty calculators 🤦🏽, I've just gotten really good at calculating the adjustments on the fly with lots of mortar squad time lol

Well done!

Very informative thanks!!

I died by friendly arty. Tks guys😂

i dont have the game but i am interested in the logistics portion of the game, and i have a question. On average, how many artillery shells are consumed in a week?

Totally not looking at tutorials for when I get the game in 3 years

NFML

My man using the default compass when playing arty :D Why are you shooting yourself in the foot like that?

Nice vid

4:48 Jeez. Half a centimeter off and you're no longer doing a fine job. Didn't know arty was such a demanding field.

As a real world artilleryman ...eh close enough
