:blob_neutral: I guess my search ends here. Im mortar lised forever in their screenshots.

:blob_neutral: It was. Now I want to know. They are closer to the source than me. They are the expert. So I kindly ask for a reference. I don't ask for much.

:blob_neutral: Very easy, in fact. Unless it is slang.

:blob_neutral: Don't you have manuals or of anything of that sort? There must be something written. Or are you telling me this is something only used in spoken language? If this use is so established, it should be easy to find.

:blob_neutral: I just need a single reference in something. Considering how much you write, this should be easy to find.

:blob_neutral: Okay, then let's refer to another source. Show me a manufacturer that calls them that way.

:blob_neutral: So you call them that way? I am surprised that no official sources exist for this terminology, then. You should be able to find a single reference.

Show me where a mortar round is called a "mortar". Then I will immediately shut up. :blob_neutral:

:blob_neutral: That doesn't imply competency at what you are doing. It is merely an indicator. Show me the inventory.

Excluding mortars from the artillery department seems a priori counterintuitive, considering the historical use of super heavy mortars. But admittedly, the classical siege mortars have disappeared.

You correctly referred to mortars rounds. Not mortars. Mortars are clearly the guns, not the ammunition. Grenades. The addendum hand is often used. As grenades are not necessarily hand held. Hand grenades are. Others are not. They just denote shells filled with explosives.

You said that indirect fire munitions do not make for good building materials. :blob_hmm: But mortars are not the ammunition, but rather the guns themselves.

J_Chemist :blob_hmm: Wouldn't that be the grenades though? At most, the tubes are only used.

:blob_reach: Hydraulic mortar is a rather late invention.

@Satansoul I thought so too ... But you just need to imagine some saying cutely baka. :blob_reach:

:blob_neutral: ... :blob_hmm: ... :blob_aww: ... :blob_gift: ... :blob_cookie:

:blob_hmm: Baka cake?
