I was wondering for some clarification since artillery seems to be the fad of the day.
"a direct-fire on-board artillery attack must also apply the standard weapon attack modifiers for intervening terrain, attacker movement modifiers and—if the target is a unit—the target’s type and movement modifiers."
There are a few places where this comes up (such as a special Artillery Flak Attack with cluster ammunition). Normally your own movement never effects the number to hit, is this a special case where if your TMM is +2 from moving, you add an additional +2 to hit?
Such as you move your Catapult. It direct fires so (Base Pilot Skill + 4 (Art. Attack) + 0 (Cannot get immobile benefits from targeting ground) +1 (AoE) +2 (your own TMM)) the actual to hit number is 11? When you can fire Indirectly for a +10 since all artillery is indirect unless you specifically say direct? What is even the point to direct fire?
