    Believe this is an attack by our Artillery on the enemy in retaliation.

    I think it is when all the guns in the artillery brigade are firing together on the same target or at least on the same area. Otherwise, artillery brigades are divided into three batteries and usually one is out of the line. The other two may have separate targets that are far apart.

    A full brigade bombardment must have been quite a fearsome thing.
