Re: Anomaly reports
More mortars.
Class 153 – Light Mortar
Nigeria 64 is not within the time-frame of the country, not used by any of the ‘official’ scenarios, and is a 81mm weapon.
60mm Mortar – Sudan 586 has Weight 1, all others have 0.
Thailand 573 has RoF 9, others have 8.
2 60mm Mortars – NVA 68-71 have Speed 5, all others have 3. 1 extra for stealth, concealment etc maybe, but I wouldn’t have thought 2?
Denmark 92-94 have Crew 7, others have 6.
NVA 68-71, Greece 134-136, Turkey 115 and Brazil 529-531 have RoF 9, others have 8.
Argentina 565 & Brazil 529-531 have 45 Weapon 1 & 2 rounds, others have 60.
3 60mm Mortars – Ethiopia 85 has RoF 9, all others have 8.
Class 173 – Para Mortar Team
Belgium 527 is the only unit in-class with a Fire Control rating.
N.Korea 598 & 599, and Belgium 527, 542 & 543 are Size 0, all others are 1.
China 405 & 407 have Speed 3. Standard speed for a 107mm mortar (the nearest equivalent) is 1. Maybe 2 because they’re paras?
India 545 & 546 don’t actually possess a mortar.
Up to 60mm – N.Korea 598 & 599, and Switzerland 366 have Speed 3; Yugoslavia 293 has 4; France 344 & 381, Yugoslavia 289-292 and Croatia 293 have 5; all others (the vast majority) have 6.
French, N.Korean & Swiss units have RoF 8, all others have 9.
Belgium 542 & 543 have Crew 5, standard is either 3 or 4.
India 542-544 have Crew 10, but they appear to have a somewhat different function to standard para mortar teams.
81mm – Switzerland 367, Indonesia 571-573 and Rhodesia 98 have Speed 2; USA 516 and Italy 415-417 have 3; S.Africa 215-217 have 4; Portugal 217 & 218 have 5, and Ethiopia 438 & 457 have 6.
USA 516 and S.Africa 215-217 have a ‘man over’, ie Crews of 9.
S.African units have RoF 9; Ethiopian, Indonesian & Portuguese units have RoF 8, standard is 7.
