Airstrike/mortar

Postby Scope737 » Fri Jul 13, 2012 10:14 pm

Can someone tell me what is the difference between a mortar and an airstrike? Is it really worth taking a risk to get those other kills?

A mortar is a single explosive launched from a tube. An airstrike is completely different. It's the release of many explosives by an aircraft, generally directed by ground infantry.

It may also be from a battery of those tubes, launching many explosive charges at the same time.

I think if you changed /airstrike to /mortar or /artillery it wouldnt make a difference. They are all essentially the same thing. The explosives fall on the infantry to a specified coordinate. Servers should have to option to change the command /*whatever*
