Issuing Fire and Smoke Commands
To shoot at a specific enemy unit or at a suspected enemy location, you
issue the Fire command. To place smoke screens that conceal your
forces’ movements from the enemy, you issue the Smoke command (to
teams with smoke capability).
There are two types of fire used in Close Combat
direct and indirect
fire. Direct fire weapons require a clear line of sight to fire; pistols,
rifles, machine guns, submachine guns, antitank weapons, and most
artillery are direct fire weapons. Mortars are indirect fire weapons; they
do not require a clear line of sight to fire at the enemy.
Delivering effective fire depends on factors such as range, cover, team
quality, and enemy suppression fire. For a more detailed description of
the factors affecting firing and smoke screens, see Chapter 3, “Tactics.”
Once you select a team, you
can issue a Move Fast com-
mand by pressing
X. To
complete the command, drag
the destination line from the
team to its destination, then
click to place the destination
marker.
