RE: A haiku to uselessness: the ATR
^
I didn't suggest that the IG can't do anything, just "not much." From context, I thought it was clear that I was simply pointing out a unit of *relative* weakness (or, perhaps, a unit whose DF factor does not correspond to its actual utility?) that, as I recalled, had been discussed previously in the same vein as the ATR.
Of course, in your stack suggestion, one now brings in the three-units-in-a-hex col shift along with the artillery col shift. So DF and BF attacks vs. that stack will be punishing in return. Is the added firepower to shift to the 16DF col worth the shifts to be suffered by the Grens (and the IG itself) against enemy fire?
