    Default After Three Games Running THIS Needs To Be Fixed

    And that is artillery that aims for the SIDE of a unit rather than the MIDDLE of it. With cannons out of the way, we're going to be using ballista and catapults at best. If they fire at the side of a unit rather than at the core meat of it it's not only going to reduce the casualties but just plain look bad.

    This annoying bug has been in-game since Empire, and it baffles me that it hasn't been fixed yet. CA needs to do us a favor and make it so in Rome, even if at this point we don't have the same artillery we used to have.

    Well before Empire, artillery just wasn't able to hit anything, or well, it was splendid at hitting that piece of land 6 meters in front of the enemy.

    I only really noticed this playing FOTS, but yes it was super annoying. I thought it had something to do with that 3rd person shooting stuff they put into FOTS.

    never noticed this actually since my arty almost always misses or hits them at the back but they always are close to the center for me though or at least it looks that way? what needs to be fixed is that if they get hit they stay down not like what we have today when you hit someone with the arty they get knocked off and then stand up and run to rejoin the line i think its unrealistic and gets annoying...

    Try using the Gatling guns. You will notice that they consistently aim at the corner of a line of a regiment.

    there should be an option to target a piece of land (like we had for chinese cannons in C&C generals) instead of an unit.

    I haven't noticed it, and it would not be described as a bug, but a design/program flaw
