Re: Supermen Infantry?
With only mortars, you can push a huge human wave to retreat and rout, without even risk any of your tanks/APCs. Only one jeep and your mortars are needed. After that Tanks/Mechs can destroy them with very little casualties.
In the opposite tanks/mech are very hard to kill with arty: you have to plan very good targets to hit them. Only aircraft can do easily the job against them:
infantery is not supermen if you use your arty carefully.
The first scen of the Israel vs Palestine (AIW: Kaliliah 10/56) is very good for such stuff: you have mechs against inf/motor inf, and with two 25p batteries, you can kill them all: try it.
