Yep, you can check the Biwiki Artillary model page and there is list of all available ammo.

Im not familiar with Biwiki. I was referring to ingame artillery just in-case you misunderstood.

So these different types of ammo are ingame but cant be applied without going through the mission editor ? I only ask because i never used the mission editor.

Dude your missing out on the best part of the game if your not using the editor. You don't even have to go all crazy with scripting or anything, just use the basic editor tools and you can make some real nice missions with a little practice.

Yes, in fact a better name for it would be 'Mission Creator' because you build from scratch on an empty map, you don't have to 'edit' anything.

For examp to get the feel of artillery you could create a mission in just 2 minutes by simply placing a single man (Player), then place a mortar near him, hit 'Preview' then have fun assigning nearby targets to it (houses, trees etc), and watch the spectacular blasts as the rounds begin falling.

Save it as a 'User Mission' for future use, that's when you can 'edit' it to add more mortars or whatever.

Heavier on-map artillery is a little harder to handle because it has a minimum range and won't bombard anything too close; the target area needs to be some miles away and you won't see the blasts, which spoils the fun, unless you're in the area yourself with a radio link to the gun behind the lines.

Check this out

http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=9285

if you want realistic Artillary and Logitics, comes with a demo mission.

You can change the types of Art from smoke rounds to cluster rds, to he rds, and he rds at varying ranges. The clusters are ausome!

You can have manual artillary or disable the manual and use the ingame artillary computer, its great.

Any questions about this let me know, I use this all the time when I have Art in my missions, or even ask on their release thread.

I think in a Harvest Red campaign mission or two you have artillery available. I think you can choose your mission including the rounds used. In warfare also you can choose the kind artillery to call.
