One-screen firing loop
Use this as the homepage quick-start before reading the detailed aiming guide.
| Step | Player action | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Read the order | Identify target, coordinates, mission priority, and any special instruction. | Most bad shots start with a misunderstood order. |
| 2. Mark the map | Use grid, ruler, bearing, and range notes before touching the gun. | Map work prevents guessing and friendly-fire errors. |
| 3. Pick shell and charge | Choose the shell role first, then use charge to fit distance and effect. | Wrong shell choice wastes requisition and time. |
| 4. Set the weapon | Set bearing, elevation, loading sequence, and any mission-specific control. | The turret is a procedure game, not a reflex shooter. |
| 5. Observe and correct | Watch impact, compare against order, then adjust range or bearing. | Corrections turn misses into useful data. |
Shell decision preview
Use a conservative shell role table until you verify exact demo values in-game.
| Need | Default thinking | Common risk |
|---|---|---|
| Precise target | Use a shell and charge setup that favors controlled placement. | Over-correcting after one miss. |
| Area pressure | Prefer effect over pinpoint accuracy when the order calls for suppression. | Wasting high-value rounds on low-value targets. |
| Longer shot | Treat map measurement and charge choice as one decision. | Changing elevation without rechecking range. |
| Unknown order | Slow down and translate the instruction line first. | Firing before you know what the order asks. |

FAQ
Short answers for long-tail search tasks and launch decisions.
Is this the official IRON NEST website?
No. This is an independent guide site. Use the Steam page and the official link hub for official announcements, purchases, and developer updates.
What should new players learn first?
Learn the firing loop: read the order, mark the map, choose shell and charge, set bearing and elevation, fire, then correct from impact evidence.
Why does the site focus on shells and map tools?
Those are the clearest guide-intent questions from the current research pack. They also create useful reference pages that are different from a generic review.
Are the Steam screenshots hosted by this site?
No. The current build references public Steam CDN media by URL for source-backed visual context. The site should not download or rehost those files unless asset policy is confirmed.
