German 50mm Mortar

[McIvan]

I agree re the German and Brit 50mm. They are quite useful bits of kit, but at first you wonder what on earth to do with them.

The answer is close support supression of whatever the parent platoon happens to be firing at. The German 50mm can do this 2-3 times before it runs out of ammo, the Brit 50mm only the once really, but it can also smoke something, eg that 150mm SiG that just opened up, while you get a counter into position and/or run away.

Still...there are better choices for your points. But if a scenario or OOB assigns them to you, no need to despair at all.
