If I Remember Correctly, rocket artillery is some of the most inaccurate and while it supresses the hell out of anything you point it at, destroying anything but the land is practically a coin flip. Its been my experience that using unguided HE rockets can be fun to watch, but not something I want to do if my men are within 5 hexes of the impact zone or on a specific target (like counter battery fire, uprooting a specific entrenched unit etc). I think you'll notice that as the systems accuracy goes up the cost goes up dramatically.

The BM-21 Pl costs 161 in the Russian OOB while in the USA OOB an MLRS Section (also having the benefits of cluster munitions) is 509. Both the BM-21's 122mm Rocket (LR in this case for off-map) and the MLRS's 223mm CM-Rocket have accuracy one, but in the case of the 223mm rocket you've got an over 40 point increase in the HEK value. To put the accuracy thing in perspective, even an 82mm mortar has an accuracy level of 3, and the 152mm howitzer used on the Russia's SPA is almost 10. Its a trade off, put the rounds where you want or just chuck 3-5x as many rounds in the general direction.
