This is a link to the explanation of the AACW game factor known as frontage. If this still applies in CW2, then a certain number of artillery batteries in a stack will be permitted to fire each round depending on terrain and overall commander's stats. If you have more artillery in a stack than the maximum number permitted to fire, then the guns that fire will be chosen randomly. So, if you have eight 6-lbrs and eight 20-lbers and only eight may fire, then most often a mix of both guns would fire. However, if you only have big guns in a stack, then they will fire every round. Artillery in a Division will only fire at the target of that Division. Artillery loose in a stack will fire at a random target. Artillery do not participate in an assault when range is zero, so I have all infantry and cavalry in the assault Divisions and heavy artillery loose in the stack (Corps/Army).
