The problem is in the Select Target and Select Attackers Overlays.
Any hex under an overlay cannot be targeted, and any unit under the overlay cannot fire.
The Select Target overlay is small, and near the bottom where it doesn't interfere with you selecting the road segment next to the lower left howitzer.
As soon as you select the hex to fire on, the far larger select attacker overlay (four overlays, actually) appears.
Because of the design decision to fade out the right and left edges of the overlay, it is invisible where it covers the howitzer. You can find the actual edges of the overlay by moving your mouse around; hexes under the overlay will not highlight when the mouse pointer moves over them.
So for someone who knows what the problem is, the workaround is simply to move the board up so that the howitzer can be selected.
In my next post I will suggest solutions That Auroch might want to consider implementing.
