I looked up the stats and the "Hollow charge" ability seems to deal only 80 damage.

Thanks for the tips but I think your claim about the "Hollow charge" ability oneshotting an ambulance is wrong.

Apologies, meant to write that it's effective against forward retreat points, including the ambulance not all that one shot jazz. (I blame Romeo, I heard it on his stream and added that thought last minute)Will fix,thanks for picking that up

In arty war between LeIG and 120mm mortar, does the LeIG stands a chance? Or should the LeIG just focus on firing inf and then move away after each barrage?
120mm is one of those "watch out" units.
Do not try to counterfire unless you have a direct bee line to the 120.
If your LEIG is forced to fire in that weird mortar like arc then don't engage a 120mm. Try to keep it in a range where it can still direct fire but it can also avoid fire from the 120. Hope that helps
