When playing as the Soviets, I like the 132mm rockets, good even spread and can tear up the infantry.

As the Germans I like the 158mm. good punch and a couple of salvos to spread it out nicely.

How 'bout you?

337mm incendairy rockets or 210 mm German Stuff

76.2mm Soviet Artillary. Huge ammo load, lays out great smoke for covering an advance, and is one of the cheapest Arty units in the game.

132mm is an awesome prep weapon. Basically useless in any other role.

Yeah, the 337 incindiary is cool, I just played a QB on very dry steppe, it lit up a good portoin of the grass and alot of it is burning and sreading. SahWEET!

Katyushas. Any caliber do. I have erased whole towns with these.

If you want accurate fire, go for tube artillery, if you want destruction, go for the rockets.

My favorite is a 800 meter linear pattern not found in CMBB.... ;)

I like the ability to give preplanned bombardments, but without the availability of patterns the value is diluted IMHO. The only pattern is the standard.
