Was looking at a list of mortars on wiki that America used in Ww2.I found a M2 60mm mortar that was used until Korean war I think.I think it could be a great t0 weapon for Murika.Could have less range ,less damage, and could set up/pack up fast.It could even be a cheap unit like 200 mp?Sometimes you walk into a mg for a split second and you have no chance to escape eventual hard suppression without retreating.I would just like some opening choices besides rifles/RE and doctrinal level 0 like assault engineers/m20 transport.

There's actually already an M1 80mm Mortar in the game's files, it's used only in the Singleplayer Campaign. I think it'd be a great addition. Personally I'd throw it in Lieutenant tier as a lighter alternative to the Captain's Pack Howitzer.

yeah USF needs some cheap indirect fire... I mean this expensive Inf howitzer is no option at all... and you have to tech to Captain to get it.
Would help a lot against Ostheer MG opening.. and maybe we would see something beside 3 or 4 rifle openings
Add mortar to USF T0 pls

They had a mortar in CoH1. Likely for a good change to faction design they deliberately got rid of it in CoH2. Either way with M8 & Howi they have mid-late game indirect fire. A mortar would be okay, like OKW gets with HMGs, as a 1CP commander unit - perhaps in an artillery focused commander.

both the 80mm and 60mm are apparently in single player and USF is supposed to get one of them some time soon(tm)

Won't be much different from the original VCoh 60mm then. That thing was only ever good as a smoke platform and its Wehr counterpart fired laser-guided rounds to counter it

Actually the 60mm Mortar doesn't have it's own model, it uses the Granatwerfer's model. So if they were to use one, chances are it'd be the 80mm Mortar which does have a model.

I don't think anyone is gonna go in game and measure the calibre of the mortar model

American mortar has worst range and damage, but best set up time and fire rate I'm assuming.

What I meant was only one of the 2 US Mortars has a model in-game, so if they add one, it probably won't be the one that uses a placeholder.
Besides, if you wanted to talk scale, there's almost too many things to list. Like how the real 222 was slightly larger than a Kubelwagen, not a Panzer IV!

Well if it could smoke without a star that would really help early game
