    For people wondering, yes this is as realistic as you can get with mortars. The reason the ingame ranges dont work is due to the immense height elevation. I was in the US Army and I was in fact a mortar man, on the 'battlefield' per se we would have what are known as FISTERS go out on patrol with scout squads, these Fisters would gather coordinates for us to use which would be more accurate than what we would have on an actual terrain map, thus making it easier to be accurate with our mortar system. In Afghanistan for example, we were in a higher elevation, this would make us have to adjust our zeroing by a few meters, and in some cases depending how high up we were we would be able to shoot even further by a few hundred meters. I love that Squad added mortars and even though it is extremely simplified, it is still accurate to how its used, my only complaint would actually just be the amount of rounds you can shoot over since in real life you can shoot as many as you like non stop as long as you have cold water to cool down the barrels every couple of shots.

    As a FISTER, I 100% approve this. Obviously these guys don't have a fire direction center to do the math from a non co-located FO, so co-locating is the only option. This is essentially what we would do if we were set up at a support by fire position that didn't have room to set up aiming poles and the mortars would just fire in handheld mode. FIST stands for Fire Support Team btw, that's why we're referred to as FISTERS.

      Maybe I cut it, but I noticed and called it out way later, when we were almost done hitting the tower. We saw the Helo hovering with infantry running around, so we assumed that they were building aHAB and started hitting it hard anyway. It's seriously hard to zero mortars from the mountaintop, since the mils on the ranging dial aren't accurate.

    This has to be one of the more genius Squad FOB placement/tactic I've seen so far. Another good FOB placement tactic is called Castle of Thorns and is mainly for insurgents/militia team on urban maps, conceived by another TH-camr (KaptainKrunch97). The TL:DR of it is to find a building near/in an objective zone, reinforce it (basically becoming barricaded forces), and basically piss off the enemy team and make them lose resources by getting them to focus on you. Really fun from what I saw, but I haven't seen it used since the ICO. Should try it sometime!

    • @ThunderBatRED

      "Tower of Thorns" is my favorite cheese. You can make it almost impossible to dig you out without tanks and explosives. If you do it off the point, the enemy wastes time not capping. If you do it on the point, you can hide 20 guys in a couple of buildings, and have 15 left by the end of the match

  • @famulanrevengeance3044

    For Mortar players: generally 3 shots in the same spot are good enough, unless they have cover like buildings. So pop 3 in one spot, then fire the next 3 20meters left / right / forward / back.
    Doesn't need to be specific, just rain hell in several locations. Most players walk around the area where mortars just impacted. Could put a new set of shots in the same spot 20-30 seconds later to get the medics if enemies are clustered together.
    It's like 'Battleship' pick a new spot every time.
    And bring a spotter! Firing blind is no fun. Discord screen share is also awesome to see what your shots are doing.

      I used to be a motorman in my Platoon. The max range (in game) on the 81mm is considerably neutered as those tubes can put a round 6km+ down range.
      However the physics imho are pretty accurate..the sound of the round leaving the tube is incredible accurate.
      I mean it’s a game at the end of the day..think they’ve done a fairly decent job replicating, though it’s far more complex than what’s being portrayed …having said that would be interesting to see if they could add in game setting the charge, cross levelling and traversing mechanisms (which not everyone could do, had be able to pat your head and run your belly at the same time) using the site unit to line up with the guide sticks to get on target one the FC provides the Fire Mission …of course you would need a Fire Controller, which I was also trained on…could get a round on target (within a two foot radius within 3 round..which is kinda being done with whomever is calling in the corrections….bearing/elevation ..drop/add/left/right 10 25,50 etc already ..I think even TOF is even incorporated in game 🤔 . I also find the use of mils using the binos fairly accurate.
      Computers are used today..back in my day, it was on the fly math…the MDFC (motor data fire calculator) was just being introduced towards the end of my time in…it basically looked like a Texas Instruments calculator on steroids..with the old red digital numbers. We were faster, each and every time…😂 We not only beat it..we were more accurate.

    So on the Binods the little thing that goes up from 10 8 6 4 2 is a range indicator. If you put the target inside of it the numbers go 1k Meters to 200 Meters. I know the range is past 1k But it will give you an estimate and could have got the gun set up faster along with closer engagements.

    when i try and organize a mortar team either the squad lead doesnt mark targets properly or the mortar guys dont know how to aim it properly or keep firing on 1 spot doing nothing. when you get a good team of guys going its game changing. 1 elite squad is worth 2-3 unorganized squads

    They should add aiming posts to make the mortar experience more accurate. Have the ability to lay and adjust by sight but if you add aiming posts to the mortar line and have to lay the tube via the dial sight, your fires will be more accurate.

    I find it kind of hilarious that half of the video is just you giving your teammate good numbers, him deciding randomly "Nah, you know what? I don't like those numbers. I'm gonna go above/below that by 2-300 for fun. See what happens. Oh hey, would you look at that, I missed!" and then hearing you repeat the numbers you gave him.

      Realistically speaking that's also a more accurate representation of how it normally works. Our fires team had one 1lt, one sfc and the rest were a bit of a mix of sgts on down the e2s. When at all possible the sfc was the one calling the shots, as he just plain had the experience whereas the lt was just an artillery officer, so he wasn't incredibly specialized. One of the privates did call 155s once. That made a big mess and he pretty much nailed it.
