7.6 Battery Aggregation

This will allow batteries of guns to be aggregated into Battalions of guns, so that a call-for-fire can be

directed at either the battery or the battalion. This will allow more complex scenarios to be created

and will create a more realistic training environment for trainees.

A battalion must first be created by giving the battalion a name, selecting a callsign from the list of

all available callsigns and the doctrine for the battalion respectively.

When user clicks Add Battalion, the ‘Select Battalion Battery’ panel opens up and it allows the user

to choose the desired Batteries of the selected doctrine to be added to the battalion.

FSCC does not apply for Naval Batteries. A mission initiated by a naval battery cannot be

allocated to another battery. Pending missions of other battery are not allowed for allocation to

naval Batteries.

The batteries of a battalion fired by the ICP for a Time on Target mission, will result by

having all detonations at the same time, even if different batteries have different loading times.
