LOL that was taken in his garden last week.... do you not recognise mTk?

Regarding that pic what were those cans that seem to be carried high up their backs on top of the ground sheet or smock?

Also how much did a mortar that size weigh... doesnt look like it would be particularly heavy.

It is mine favorite weapon in CM The best light mortars you can find in Romanian and Italian army - fast, and with 65 rounds x 65 mm that can stop all attack and knock down all guns.
Primary use of mortars for me is knocking down enemy guns
I use them separately from theirs platoons and usually I make mortars platoon [Image: mortars.jpg]

They first made panic on infantry riding on tanks and then during rest of the fight they destroyed several guns (3 probably) and killed a lot of infantry.
as you can see only Company HQ could be visible to enemy.
