Destroyer Spearhead

THE SHORT VERSION

Up to three Heavy Support units gain a preparatory barrage after deployment and pre-battle movement, firing all their weapons before ordinary turns begin. If both armies bring the formation, the side taking the first turn resolves its barrage first. The rule creates a clear supporting role for concentrated heavy fire: weaken or pin the opposition before the main attack advances.
