New unit- mortar

[thisismysn20]

I need a foot unit artillary, and I figure this may be the one... But for the people that are using it, is it a good unit to grab?

yes it is.

Well, Crist2000 may be a little biased since it's his unit but he is correct! First I used the mortar unit as "not Wheeled" and had the artillery units as "Wheeled." That way I could use it for jungle and mountain fighting. Works great but I didn't have enough need for jungle/mountain artillery. So...I added paradrop ability (I just use the Green Para drop .flc) and now he can accompany the paratroopers on their missions and give them much needed artillery support. I love it in this role!

Grab it by all means.

Well since in my mod only foot units can be transported, I think this would be the only artillary that could be transported.. =)

So it would be a nice peice

I suppose even a better role. Just give the bombard ability to Infantry and set .INI file in such way:

attackA- mortarAttack.flc/. wav
attackB- Infatryattack.flc/ .wav

stack at least two units togetther. The second infantry unit gives mortar support fire when your units is being attacked . Looks great!

Could this be updated or made into flavour units for a World War II mod? It could be made into Allied, Axis and United States versions.

I know this thread is SUPER dead, but.. The Mortar file is missing the .pcx's
Is there anyway I could get those?
