RE: Direct Fire with range exceeding 12
I think common sense applies here. Direct fire implies that you, the gunner, are lining up your sites on to the target. You want to fire (directly) on THAT THING as opposed to somewhere OVER THERE. If you are on an elevation, and benefit from increased line of sight, then you can see your target and employ direct fire. If someone else is spotting the target for you, you are no longer employing direct fire... your fire is now being directed by someone else who has eyes on the target; not you, as the gunner. With regards to the town, unless you have the 150mm IG in the church steeple with you, your fire is no longer direct. Basing my observation as someone who has called in indirect artillery fire and walked it on to target.
