Artillery calculator for WARDOGS

Put rounds on target.

Stop guessing your shots. Enter your artillery and target grids and get the exact distance, azimuth and mil elevation to land them with the L81 Mortar or SPH-2.

Run it as an overlay on top of the game, or dial one in right here in your browser.

How the overlay works

Stay in the match.

The overlay floats on top of WARDOGS, so getting a firing solution never means alt-tabbing out of the game.

  1. 1

    Press Alt + M

    The calculator pops up over the game, right where you left it.

  2. 2

    Type both grids

    Your artillery position and your target's. The solution updates as you type.

  3. 3

    Dial it in, then hide it

    Set azimuth and elevation from the readout, then press Alt+M again to put it away.

Closing the main window keeps ArtyDog in the tray, so the shortcut keeps working. You can rebind Alt+M in settings; while ArtyDog runs, that key never reaches the game.

Fair play

It never touches the game.

ArtyDog is an ordinary window sitting on top of WARDOGS. It doesn't even know the game is running. You read the map, you type the grids, it does the math.

It's open source, so you don't have to take our word for it. Read the code.
