SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Clears a narrow lane by delivering a short burst that hits the nearest target and the immediate depth behind it.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Compact burst that hits the nearest target and the immediate depth behind it.
  • Useful for pressure in tight lanes where a single point hit is insufficient but a full-area move would be wasteful.
  • Provides a clear, bounded action with predictable outcomes.

Quick Start

Directly apply a short burst down the nearest useful lane to affect the target and the depth behind it.

FAQPage Schema
What is a bounded burst action for clearing a narrow lane?

A bounded burst action is a compact tactical strike that targets the nearest object in a narrow lane and immediately affects the depth directly behind it. It provides predictable outcomes without the waste of a broad blast.

When should I use a compact burst instead of a full-area blast?

Use a compact burst when a single point hit is too narrow but a full-area blast would be wasteful. It is ideal for pressuring tightly stacked lanes where you need to affect immediate depth behind the initial hit.

How do I apply a short burst to target a stacked lane?

To apply a short burst, directly target the nearest useful lane to affect the front target and the immediate depth behind it. This requires clear criteria for what lies behind the initial hit to ensure a deterministic outcome.

Does the shotgun approach work for broad area pressure?

No, the shotgun approach is not designed for broad area pressure. It is specifically built for narrow lanes where a tightly stacked group of targets requires a bounded action rather than a full-area move.

What are the limitations of using a bounded burst for lane pressure?

The limitation of a bounded burst is that it requires clear criteria for what lies behind the initial hit. It is ineffective if a lane is not tightly stacked or if broad area coverage is actually needed.

Can I use a narrow lane burst without clear depth criteria?

No, applying a narrow lane burst requires deterministic criteria for what lies behind the initial hit. Without clear depth visibility, the bounded action cannot guarantee predictable outcomes.
