French Mortars
 

Have noticed in many years French 120mm Mortars cannot be loaded by the vehicles assigned to them in OOBs. Believe Problem exists in other OOBs as well, but cannot remember offhand which.

Re: French Mortars
 

Which mortar(s) and which potential carrier vehicle(s) and at what date(s)?.

Cheers

Open up the French OOB with MOBHack and go to unit 442 (120mm Mortar) and change the number of men in the unit to 6 and your problem is solved . It's one mortar and should not have a ten man crew.
It will be fixed properly when we release V3 next year

Just to add to that, most french 120mm mortar units with two tubes have a crew of 6 (units 413, 420, 475). However there are two units (414, 476) that have two tubes and a crew of 10. There's also a unit (412) which has 3 tubes and a crew of 6. Ammo loads are either 30 or 40 per tube for all these units.

That's quite a spread of 'crew per tube', varying from 2 to 5 per tube; 6 if you add the changed single tube unit (442) with a 6 man crew.

Yes, I'm aware of that. That's why I told him "It will be fixed properly when we release V3 next year" There are a number of inconsistancies in the OOB's regarding Mortar crewing and the French OOB is the worst one I've found so far. It will all be corrected when we release the V3 set.

Okay, glad to see it is on the list. I replied because you mentioned only unit 442 in your reply and I wasn't sure if you were aware of the other inconsistencies concerning mortar crews in the french OB. When I saw this thread I recalled having spotted this a while back, but I forgot about it soon after.
