General Details
Name: Cruise Missile/120
Type (Category): Weapon (Area-Effect)
Reference: Tactical Operations: Advanced Units & Equipment (p. 96)
Description:Though technically a proven, pre-spaceflight concept, cruise missiles faded from the military stage when spacecraft—and capital-scale missile technologies—became prevalent. The modern tactical cruise missile artillery platforms being developed are effectively heavily modified versions of the Arrow IV launch system, but boast much greater range and damage potential at a significant loss in accuracy.
Game Rules:In game play, Cruise Missile Artillery functions just like artillery systems using standard munitions, with the following exceptions: - Cruise Missiles may not deliver any Direct-Fire Artillery attacks.
- Cruise Missiles use a different Indirect Flight Time than conventional artillery or Arrow missiles, as indicated in the Indirect Artillery Flight Times
Table.
- Cruise Missile damage radiates more widely from the impact hex, as indicated in the Artillery Ordnance Table.

Special Unit Abilities
The special unit abilities described here are intended for use with the Alpha Strike rule system:
Artillery (ARTCM12)
This special ability lets a unit make an artillery attack. Each different type of artillery a unit carries is listed separately, with the number indicating the number of that type carried. For example, a unit with two Cruise Missile/120 artillery weapons would record this as ARTCM12-2.
