It's a really nice duo. You can see the tube and baseplate's weight. But with mortars it's the ammo that counts… |

Asked on another conversation, but how widely was the 60 used? I've read completely contradictory accounts/assertions. For table top purposes should we see it as a rarity or SOP? A contemporary documentary (Hill 943) describes the company being tracked as having 114 men in 4 platoons, 16 squads…..|Units are never up to strength of course, but should we think in terms of each platoon having 3 rifle squads and a mortar squad? Should we even think of a mortar squad or rather of a team of 2/3 guys? Or maybe (in effect) a mortar platoon? We like out games to function at the 'company in attack/platoon in defence' level. |
