Swag has all the 411!
The mortar teams would have an unarmored cargo vehicle of some sort...adjusted to meet the needs of the weapon.
This is a custom build unit for III Corps return to the US to clean up Texas. My units were smaller, battalion sized, and carried more punch at lower levels. IE the mortars at the platoon level.
My question is really would a pair of howitzers be of much use to a battalion that already has 4 heavy tubes and is only responsible for a single county? Might be overkill...
Also, that whole MG v SAW thing at the squad level still irks me. I like the same ammo point...but is the firepower that much different at this point?
Would GL's make better use of a weapons squad maybe?
