Yes it can be helpful to have especially for how cheap it is.

It comes in fairly slowly, and it's only 4 shells, but still.. if you have to displace some weapon teams, or interrupt a VP capture or something like that, it'll do just fine.

It's a horrible waste. You should never ever use it. Use the munitions to purchase weapon upgrades instead.

I'm with Romeo. It sucks. Give your major a weapon if you want to get some usefulness out of his squad.

Pretty much this. But if you use it and get lucky it is one of the ways to get the major vet 3 for that sector lock-down.

I prefer saving for double BARs. Much better. I haven't seen anyone using it effectively.

Getting the major to vet3 is insanely easy, I never need the lockdown either, because of the poor sector design in most of the team maps. More useful for the 1v1 maps, which mostly all have useful cutuff points.

It's absolutely garbage. It's so comically slow to come down and doesn't even inflict that much damage.

The only thing it could be good for is inflicting damage on a OKW truck or some kind of fixed position- and even then it doesn't inflict that much damage.

It's better used as a retreat point than anything.

One of his vets gives him an extra shell and there is some bug that is likely still there, which drops a shell in the previous areas you called the strike on before gaining that vet level.

It's too slow. If the goal is to disperse some infantry, use the fake artillery call. Instead, equip the Major with a Bazooka or a BAR. More effective that way.
