It would be great if we could team our artillery pieces for simultaneous fire on the whole area around the target.

Suggestion / Idea

See title.

Team up artillery pieces for more destruction. Teamed artillery fires randomly around the target (with at least one aiming directly at the target) takes out the whole mob.

No reason other than it would be cool.

I agree. Total Annihilation style long range accuracy. Set up several Core Intimidators and fire into the enemy base. Blast size is size of a nuclear blast.

Was slightly disappointed when I had to add the randomness in myself with the targeting module.

I use my autoclicker and just drag my cursor randomly over the red splotches. Also how I do super long range scouting.

Time on target or just simultaneous firing would also be pretty neat. Maybe have it be a shift click on multiple targets with the release of shift sending the destruction.

The way to do this is to have so many artilleries set up that at any given time, you've got shells raining down.

Being able to set up a walking barrage would be cool too. Target the nests and then have the shells walk back towards the wall to catch the biters as they run in to attack.
