If it's stupid but it works, it isn't stupid

Never forget that your weapon is made by the lowest bidder

If you are forward of your forward position, your artillery will fall short

There is no overkill. There is only "open fire" and "I need to reload".

I thought it was "time to reload"?

The enemy of my enemy is the enemy of my enemy, nothing more and nothing less.

Pillage, then burn.

Ah, but those two can be applied to any time period.

Reloading a gun is definitely a (more) modern action ;)

Role of the US Marine Corps Artillery: "The role of the Marine Corps Artillery is to kill as many Godless enemy bastards and their subhuman cohorts with the least expenditure of munitions possible, and to integrate all supporting fires so as to restore cave dwelling as an accepted mode of living in the former enemy territory."
