Assets - gone but not forgotten?

Are Scheduled assets gone ...
Or as per Page 18 (2nd sentence) still around somewhere please?
Thanks

I can't anything that mirrors Assets from BKC2.  I assume that off table artillery in BKC3 can be dedicated as scheduled for what turns you want it to be and then available to be called in on request on the other turns.  With no limit to sceduled fire that does mean that you could have several units of off table artillery  hitting say a village or hill every turn automatically??  You'd have to use the FO to delay fire if you wanted to stop it.  Is that how it works?

It appears that with assets gone....there is no limitation to scheduled fire....(seemingly for smoke too).
FO has to issue a Delay or Cancel request ..per p47.

However...it doesn't hit automatically ...and deviates 2d6 for each template, unless Accurate when only roll 1d6.
Frankly for off table support (except for ground attack aircraft) - 2d6 deviation means hitting the target point almost all the time anyway.
