AN/PEQ-1 SOFLAM and artillery

How about adding cluster bombs instead of that retarded artillery only the commander can use cluster bombs! The players can use the SOFLAM too point out where the enemy is and then the commander can help them with an Cluster bomb strike!

What artillery ?
What map are you talking about ?
The SOFLAM doesn't work and I don't think it will ever work ?
You can already put a marker on the map to inform the commander of enemy positions.
Do you even play PR ?

This has been suggested before, many, many times.

Change Artillery for bombs.
Designate targets with SOFLAM.

Why exactly is artillery such a stupid thing to have? Besides the devs are looking into ways of having other requestable assets but it sounds like it's a pain in the arse so it's taking some time.

Cluster bombs seem to be on their way to being banned anyway by the sounds of it. Although it would seem that the U.S. and several other nations won't be particularly interested in such a scheme.
