Well the point as I see it with the new Z fire rules is to make the game more realistic. In real life would you use or even be able to use your weapons in the way you describe? In real life you MUST have LOS to hit your target with a flat trajectory weapon like a rifle or machine gun, that is what's being modeled here. I think the new rules take away any unfair advantage Z fire might have given before and Z fire shouldn't be used to "plow the road" as it were anyways. I use Z fire myself from time to time on targets that have fired upon me and that my units haven't properly identified yet, in that way it is useful, but it is not my main tool to advance with.
