How it works
Firing a Tracer Round plots the path of a shell at your current angle and power and leaves the line on screen through your next turn. It does no damage.
The line is plotted against the terrain as it was when you fired, so a crater opened afterwards can make it slightly off.
When to use it
- Learning a new map or a strong wind when you can spare a turn.
