Re: Mortar truck idea
Mortars are being worked on by the team, however until a system has been made that is workable in-game this suggestion is fairly pointless.
It is also a re-suggestion.

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end... "
