What types of indirect fire units get painted up and put on the table? I remember reading this somewhere but I can't seem to find it. I know like 50mm mortars would be on the table, but where do they draw the line in IABSM? would 80mm mortars or 120mm mortars be on the table? |

Very rarely – IABSM's ground scale (12" : 80 yards) means even the battalion mortar platoon should generally be well off table. |

that makes me happy. Less Soviets to paint ;) |

The Battle for Liberation and Vpered Na Berlin supplements both give minimum ranges for the different types of mortars. As Dom says, anything larger than a light mortar should be a rarity on table. R |
