Editing FV430 Series (section)

===In Team Yankee===
Essentially an FV432 with its crew compartment filled by a mortar crew, the mortar carrier is a ubiquitous part of every mechanized infantry formation in the Western world. It is the cheapest artillery unit in the game at 0.5 points apiece (in batteries of 2, 4 or 8) but is incapable of engaging anything other than enemy infantry. Armed with an 81mm mortar with firepower 4+ and a 7.62mm MG, a mortar battery provides an artillery template capable of reliably hitting infantry with the reroll bonus. For the low, low price of 5 points, you can purchase 8 mortar carriers and a single forward observer. This bags you rerolls to hit (and forcing rerolls on enemy saves in repeat bombardment) and a nice bonus on the range in roll. The provision of 8 artillery pieces also makes this ideal for firing smoke; as you may have 5 carriers firing bombardments (hence retaining the reroll to hit bonus) while the other carriers pop smoke. 

The top armour of 0 is an exception for an FV430 chassis, due to the open hatch for the mortar team to do their job. Try to neutralize enemy artillery or your mortars will be turned to mince.

Absolutely critical to any player in an infantry-spam meta, and one of the best units in the game due to the sheer utility it provides for such a low cost.
