US mortar RoF makes it worthwhile to use. I've always found US mortars to be really reliable in terms of accuracy. At vet 3, US mortars are amazing.

Despite it being vastly superior I tend to see more vet allied mortars, I presume this is because things like howie's and 25 pounders tend to hard counter the wher mortar, which is where the PE mortar comes into its own I guess....jeez someone could probably write an essay about the intricacies of mortars.

They probably could - but why waste time on something as boring as mortars?

Cause when push came to shove, during infantry combat, Mortars scored some of the highest kills during the war.

They are without a doubt, important tools.

No one cares what happend during the war, this is a game.

[Hicks58]

Little itchy on that trigger finger arent we EliteGren?

I was giving a reason as to why you should look at them - Because Mortars are good. Why are they good? Cause they DID kill shit, and they killed shit good.

Nowhere in my post was a balance argument implied.

[EliteGren]

I think you missed the part where this is the balance forum.

Amis mortars sucks

direct hit doesnt kill axis mortar but just deals damage, it's retarded you need atleast 2 direct shoot to do shit.

Mortars scored some of the highest kills in infantry battles during the EiR war too, sillyface.

[EliteGren]

Correct, valid post.

So I'm not allowed to point out that something should be looked at, due to using a different set of wording then?

Looks like my mistake then doesn't it.

Well leadearboard shows that wehr mortars are dominating in terms of vet, same pe morts, you really need a lot of time to vet up ami mortar, since grens can take direct shots, it only owns support weapons and volks.

My one minute howitzer is more effective than the US mortar, just saying... 

[Sharpshooter824]

ugh, to many doctrine abilities and vet stacking, 1 minute howies shouldn't be happening lol.

[fallensoldier7]

Screw 1 minute howitzers and their skillfulness.

Whenever I fight mortars, i just use the barrage ability... should I try using attack ground?

I'm taking two T3s and no T4s, just like Ugly does with his way impressive moving ISTs of flame death!

The barrage ability makes the mortar fire faster, while attack ground it would fire constantly but slower.

tbh, thats what you should be using it for, mainly support weapons, using it for smoke and to take out hmgs. i can get a vet 2 us mortar in one game easily if it doesn't die. i'd just rather use my howies though

[skaffa]

Axis mortar is without a doubt a lot better than the US mortar.

But why should the axis mortar be better ?

Discuss.

[Mysthalin]

Frankly - because it costs more.
