Can the entire strafe be offset from the laser designated spot?
    Be strategic, if you plan to strafe to west, put your laser to the corner of your screen, don't allow xenos to see your laser to meta avoid the attack. i see 12 offset working very well when that is done.

    Ooooh, it looks like you can offset the whole fire mission. I was under the impression that the offset was handled in the fire mission layout, and that all of the munitions needed to drop in that 13x12 area where the red dot is. I didn't realize you can offset the 13x12 grid though. That changes things

    The wiki shows how CAS work.

    You strafe into a line on a direction. If your firemission attacks 12 tiles, you can set the gimbals from that center line to a distance of maximum 6.

    Thing with firemissions is that im not bothered to learn advanced maths (yeah i get it its not that difficult), just because i want some brrt. There are much more fun things to do for me personally, than to use trigonometry and positions of the stars to calculate a payloads sweep, just for some dumbass PO to not even know what CAS is.
