On Board Mortars - 'Spotters'

[Voxman]

Instead of using Company HQs for spotting for on-board mortars. I think it would make more sense to have the ability to purchase mortars in crews or teams.

For example:

81mm on-board mortar crew;

2X 81mm mortars

1X spotter

This way we are not using Company commanders as just mortar spotters.

I use my Company commanders in other roles too:

1. Command bonuses for MG nests

2. Follow platoons to assist with routed squads

3. Take over when platoon leaders are dead

4. To create a "bridge of command" when traveling accross long distance. When the troops are out of command, the delay is much longer and they panic easier.

I won't go into detail because my PBEM opponents may read this and figure out my awe inspiring strategery.
