In-game description

The Incendiary Mortar Shell is an artillery Shell used by mortars to set structures on fire.

Description

Like other artillery shells it is indirect fire: it has a natural inaccuracy which increases with range, its trajectory is affected by the wind, and it can trigger the retaliation of Artillery Garrisons.

It explodes on impact. The explosion deals 55 Incendiary High Explosive damage in a 2.25m radius and decreasing amounts in a 5.5m radius. It also applies an incendiary effect in its area which can set structures on fire, slowly damaging them. The effect is 30% weaker than with 3C-High Explosive Rockets.

Due to its incendiary nature it can't disable Vehicle Subsystems or cause soldiers to bleed but it can light infantry on fire.

It does not stack in the player's inventory (1 per slot) except when wearing a Heavy Ammo Uniform (stacks of 2 per slot).

Its weight is reduced by 33.3% when wearing a Heavy Ammo Uniform.

Storage

It does not stack in structure or vehicle inventories (1 per slot).It can only be stored in the stockpile of Bases (32k max).
Crates of Incendiary Mortar Shell can be directly submitted to any item stockpile that accepts that item to transfer their content.The crates can also be stored in the crate stockpiles of Storage Depots (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Seaports (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Shipping Containers (60), or Storage Ships (1000).
It can be transported by almost any vehicle with inventory slots. However it is much more efficient to transport it in bulk amounts as crates, either delivering them to a Base's stockpile with a Truck or to a crate stockpile with shipping vehicles carrying Shipping Containers.
