OT Sorta: BCT Artillery

[kalos72]

So when the current units are being reorganized into the BCT's where do rocket batteries come into play?

As I look at given information about those BCT's they seem to have either 8 SP or 8 towed howitzers.

When the game originally came out there was One Battery assigned to each Heavy Division. By 2003 there was an entire Battalion of three fire batteries organized similar to the fire batteries of howitzer battalions.

Note some things are left out to help misled people and other times it left out because no one has figure how they want to do reorganized. Considered each Division had 4 Artillery Battalion (3 gun, 1 rocket), you could take the approach that each battalion had 2 gun and 1 rocket Battery in each BCT.

To be honest, I haven't look into it too hard. I think these asset were switch with Gun battalions in Corps Artillery Brigades, is how I would read the lack of official information.

This is pre-modularization of the 3rd Mechanized Division that explains the former Division Artillery and then the Fires Brigade before being deactivated...
