mortar patch

[Strela]

Good question, Peter.

Let me look at what is involved to patch them all. We probably will either do a hot fix or if there is enough other issues a full patch.

From testing of a title under development, I can say mortars are more now effective but for two different reasons; the fixing of the erroneous calculation as reported previously and the grouping into larger units. For example in Kursk (from memory), there were 2 gun mortar units in some battalions. They were only good for smoke delivery. In our latest OOBs, they would now be a 6 gun unit at regimental level. This both increases effectiveness and reduces clutter.

We have been doing something similar with artillery, but are still testing it as full 12 gun battalions and katyushas can be devastating at this scale.
