  PURPOSE
  A-13. The purpose describes the maneuver or operational purpose for the task. When describing purpose use
  the maneuver purpose from the OPORD. Identify the maneuver formation that will leverage the targeting
  effect and describe in space and time what the effect will accomplish. An example of the purpose, "To allow
  the maneuver element to occupy far side positions while conducting wet gap crossing operations without
  becoming decisively engaged by enemy forces."
  METHOD
  A-14. The method describes how the task and purpose will be achieved. It ties the detect function with the
  deliver function in time and space and describes how to achieve the task. Method is developed using priority,
  allocation, restriction. It includes:
  * Priority of fire.
  * FPF.
  * Observers (primary and alternate).
  * Positioning.
  * Command and support relationship.
  * Naval gun fire.
  * AI.
  * FSCMs.
  * Execution triggers.
  * Special munitions restrictions.
  * Target allocation.
  * Priority targets.
  * CAS.
  * Attack aviation.
  * Other specific instructions.
  A-15. Priority assigns priority of fires to execute the task outlined. FA, other observers, or acquisition means.
  When an acquisition asset focuses exclusively on a task, that information can be communicated here. An
  example of CAS using priority would be, "CAS is to destroy the tanks in the enemy reserve." This part of the
  method can also provide focus by using NAIs, TAIs, targets, or EAs to describe where the attacks will occur.
  A-16. Allocation is the distribution of limited forces and resources for employment among competing
  requirements (JP 5-0). For the shooter, it describes the distribution of attack/delivery assets to accomplish
  the EFSTs. Attack/delivery assets may include FA fires to destroy, neutralize, suppress, obscure, or screen,
  CAS, and attack helicopters. In method, the FA and other attack/delivery assets can identify their part of
  accomplishing the EFST. It is from the method of a FS task that the FA and other FS and TA assets develop
  their tasks.
  A-17. Restriction which is the method can also outline any limitations or restrictions on accomplishing the
  tasks. Ammunition such as no improved conventional munitions on the objective, FSCMs, ACMs, or other
  restrictions that may affect the accomplishment of the FS task.
  A-18. FS planners use the memory aids of target, trigger, location, observers, delivery, attack guidance,
  communications (refers as TTLODAC) and purpose, location observer, trigger, communications, and
  resources (ref as PLOT-CR). TTLODAC lends itself best to organizing FS planning and publishing
  information in annex D (fires) and use during technical rehearsals within the fires warfighting function.
  PLOT-CR is a better method for briefing specific targets during tactical rehearsals with the supported force.
  For instructions and examples see tables A-3 through A-6, page A-5 through A-8.
  EFFECTS
  A-19. The effects quantify the successful accomplishment of the task. Effects provide the observer or TA
  asset with a measure of completion of the task. If multiple delivery assets are involved it helps delineate what
