I believe the Mortar pit's range is on par with the leig's one altho it becomes a problem when the Mortar pit is a bit behind a forward position that is under attack from a leig. That's when the leig's mobility comes into play while the mortar pit's static style is limiting it.
It's not, max barrage range LEIG outranges the pit by a mile.
As long as some sort of nerf happens to the mortar pit, it should be good. Ost already has a hard time versus emplacements, especially on 2v2s where ignoring them isn't an option, having OKW in the same boat would be pretty brutal.
Indeed I have no qualms with nerfing the mortar pit, I just want a game that's balanced, not one that is insanely biased
Agreed, auto-fire should be limited, requiring at least SOME micro to these units because as it stands, they if left to their own devices can cause serious damage for very little, well, no, effort
