Regarding Assault Mission

Hello.. new to the game, and i bought AATF. i would like to ask about the assault mission and the time to assault parameter. what is the time based on? is it using time elapsed or the clock time? then, is the time the actual assault time (H_Hour) or the time the unit start to move. i hope my question is understandable. the manual didnt explain as much.

The assault time is based on the elapsed time, and is the time when the unit begins moving, not the time the unit will actually arrive on the objective. If you set a time less than the current elapsed time, (00:00:00, for example) the assault begins immediately.

Thats too bad on the assault time. i was hoping thats the time when they move out from the release point and assault the obj. so that i can time it with arty (wait, time on target in fire mission is no longer in AATF right?) any tips how i can sync my assault with arty or my troops insertion with smoke arty? do i have to micro everything?
