Well, at least for Imperial artillery pieces, special orders won't matter
that much, because they won't be moving much anyway. But I see your
point about putting flak units in other detachments. I think the reason
they made flak units hard to use is that they wanted to force the flak
units to be used as defensive measures against fliers for artillery
detachments. That's just my opinion, though.
