Can you recommend a good lawyer who can solve my artillery fungus problem?

Artillery Fungus- Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Since the artillery fungus can enter the chain of events at various places, I don’t see how anyone can be held responsible, unless they willingly supplied mulch with known artillery fungus in it. Which, of course, no good businessman would do! In my opinion, it is nearly impossible to prove where the artillery fungus entered the chain of events. This again is a subject for the lawyers.

What is compost?

Simply put, compost is decayed, organic plant matter that packs a powerful, nutrient-rich punch when added to your soil and plants. In more complex terms, compost is the result of aerobic microbes (oxygen-thriving bacteria and fungi) feeding on organic waste and breaking it down into a basic, wonderfully nutritious soil amendment. Although all organic matter will eventually decompose over time, it is not necessarily a quick process if left to Mother Nature.

How do I use artillery?

Battlefield 1942 FAQ
There are a number of excellent, thorough web pages on this topic: Stewart's, Khyron's, and GunMod's. The short (?) answer is that a scout uses his binoculars on a target, and if you're in an artillery piece (coastal gun, or self-propelled) you'll see a little rocket icon over your defensive strength. The icon will last 120 seconds or until the scout is killed, whichever comes first.
