Reply To: What makes a grand battery so grand?

[Patrice]

A simple way to designate a grouping of different batteries that will concentrate their fire on the same objective/target?

This grouping is occasional, so it doesn’t have a name on its own, and units need a name on the battlefield.

It probably does not depends on its exact size, but on the fact that it’s convenient for the general: he just has to say “the Grand Battery will do this” and everyone understands who he is talking about (as a native French speaker it seems logical to me).
