Some time ago I came up with this idea on mortars:
- remove autoattack completely
- increase saturation of barrage (fire all shells in barrage in shorter period of time)
- reduce lethal AoE
- increase non-lethal AoE

What would we achieve:
- mortars now actually require input from player
- damage has more "molotov-like" effect instead of "riflenade-from-FoW"
- less instagibs
- still kills models if those were already wounded

More options - implement two types of barrage:
- saturation barrage - all shells fired in shortest time interval (used when you need burst damage)
- covering barrage - longer interval between shells (when you need to deny some area from enemy)

I don't like idea of adding suppression to mortars. It easly can become an uncontollable hell.

After playing them a bit more, Sturms maybe do to much at the moment.
-Anti tank with shreks
-AI with flamers(commander)/no upgrade
-Mines
-Construction (eg flak emplacement, pak 43)
-Sweeping
-Repair

Maybe shift AT to Ober and reposition them in the build order to T1 replacing IR HT? Obers losing the mg 34 for a shrek?

So T1 has indirect fire with the support gun, a soft AT with the Obers, and whatever role that flak HT has?

Just some thoughts, anyone actually relying on Obers at all in 1v1 with the current meta?
