You have no idea what you're talking about.

Mortar emplacement is what holds the British back, and is no way superior to a German mortar team. I would gladly take mobile mortars any day, as that would be such a great buff to the British faction I would be winning games like non-stop.

The only strength of the mortar emplacement over German mortar is the fact that it fires two for 400mp, which is slightly less the cost of two German mortars. The advantages end there. The Cons of Mortar emplacements are the following :

1) In return for firing 2 rounds at a time it's very inaccurate. but can wipe out a 3 men squad in one shot
2) Its hitbox is extremely large meaning enemy mortars never miss. Its health pool really isn't that large (when you consider the fact all your mortars hit the target), and bracing the emplacement makes enemy mortar useless while taking repair for free.
3) It can't move but has a huge range
4) It can't be recrewed. Once it's gone it's 400mp down the drain, just like loosing a tank
5) It can be reinforced and left alone with a bofor and at gun.

So no, mortar emplacements isn't an issue, if you spent money on lots of mortars arty and tanks you will win every time

I really don't know why this topic is still going on. Every time I tell you guys Bofors and Mortars aren't overpowered and literally walk you through how to beat them in late game with over 1200MP , it's completely ignored.
