Heavy artillery in a reality has no shrapnels.

Hex 50 m it isn't enough for protection from 155-203 mm round.
Tank turns over sideways or a back, and the infantry is broken off on pieces and contused.

A mere 155mm falling around an MBT is not going to turn it over, that's the province of large caliber naval artillery, powerful aviation bombs and monster IEDs. Medium artilleryeffects are along the lines of this:




As for "shrapnel" it has become effectively a synonym of fragments.
