(In)accuracy An Artillery Strike scatters just like a normal blast weapon, except if a miss is rolled the distance scattered is double the roll of the D6. If a hit is rolled, the template scatters by the roll of the D6 in the direction of the small arrow.
Timing An artillery strike uses the Reserve special rule to determine when it strikes (even in missions the Reserve rule is not used). Once the artillery strike arrives from reserve it fires on that turn's Shooting phase and all of the player's Shooting phases for the remainder of the game at the same location chosen the first time it shoots. It cannot be stopped once it starts. The strike may be re-targeted at the beginning of each turn, but it must pass a new reserve roll for the new fire mission to be transmitted successfully.
