An SHW is, as has been frequently pointed out, a thing with (1) FP
(usually).

Thus, a Titan with:
16 FP range 45
2 SHWs range 45
and 5 BMs

would be able to shoot 16 FP and 2 SHW LESS 5 either-FP-or-SHW,
typically 11 FP and 2 SHW rather than 13 FP and 0 SHW _AT THE SAME
TARGET_.

If it wished to shoot 1 SHW at each of two seperate targets, it could
shoot 5-5=0 FP + 1 SHW at one, and 5-5=0 + 1 SHW at the other, and if it
wanted, 6-5=1 FP at yet another.

What this means is that you can't "soak off" the BMs with those 15cm
range FPs unless your SHW is also firing at the same detachment that the
15cm FPs are firing at.
