Well... Kinda. If it's placed in front of you.

The problem lies when someone places it RIGHT behind you when you're defending, and suddenly *BOOOOOOOOOM*. Health 1/3 gone.

I have no problem with Arty existing, however game mechanics always need to have a way for player skill to overcome or avoid damage. Maybe I'm nitpicking, but I'd like those within an artillery strike's damage radius to have a decent chance to avoid it regardless of flare placement.

(For the record? I have no problem avoiding artillery if I see it when it's placed.)
