Mortars are super situational, but when they go they go hard.

I have an evil loadout that allows me to rain mortars for 10 minutes. 2 mortars 2 engineers total chaos on Atk. Its like playing Battleship with mortar shells. I have gotten some massive hits of groups of people. Especially Africa people all trapped in those pits.
On some maps, I used to get 20-50 kills using the traditional mortars. However, their are lots of maps that they weren’t worth my time to use. Now days, the only mortars I use are the Soviet RMN-50’s and the Japanese Ariska’s, and with those I can kill far more to the point they are almost ridiculous. They RMN’s and Ariska’s do suck at close range though.
I’ve been helping a friend of mine level his mortar squad recently. I play my engrineer squad and continually build boxes for him, then I help him with marks (giving him advice based on game sense, or a actually being a forward observer for him with binoculars).
Actually a very effective setup when your team is attacking. Because he can cut of access to a point, and I can keep the sky clear of enemy aircraft by just sitting in a AA gun whenever I’m not feeding him boxes.
