Default Re: On-Map mortars firing CM

And that is why artillery units should only have AP ammo issued if you are equipping them with cluster munitions.

On-map arty units have HEAT issued for the slot 1 weapon if they have a secondary anti-tank function. APCR also works for that purpose (see the 25 pounder as heavy ATG in WW2 UK OOBs). Otherwise, Arty units should only ever have HE ammo issued for self defence weaponry held in slots 2-4.

Nothing new, and already a known factor in OOB design since the issue of SP2 back in 1996.

Though if it's not already noted in the Mobhack help file somewhere, it should be so that it does not get "rediscovered" every 3 years or so.

cheers
