Acquiring target with mortars?


Recommended Posts

Why is that sometime, when you're targetting an enemy unit with a mortar, you get the 'Area Fire' message and other times you get 'Enemy Infantry' message, meaning that you're able to target the unit directly?

I understand that the nearest HQ must have LOS to the enemy units and the mortar must be in command of that HQ.

Mortars require direct LOS to a targeted unit,

Otherwise they can only use area fire,

Mortars cannot switch back and forth without a direct command from YOU,

A targeted enemy unit can drop from LOS by taking cover, or by hiding,

(my oppinion) Even with direct LOS You are best off using the area fire command,
