It'd be cooler if he said

"and mortars may come *from* the future", implying they'd be futuristic Space-Mortars or someshit.

YEAH!
"and mortars may come in the future"

Oh, and from the live Q&A:

<@bcoolface> turrets would be cool for some kind of asymmetric assault style map and mortars may come in the future

He does - he just doesn't use it very often.
A long time back he said this:

I would like more weapons that take advantage of the dynamic terrain...
a satchel charge or mortar would be cool but they'd have to be
implemented in a way that couldn't be abused.

Though there are alot of features that he'd like to add - he just can't add them all at one time.

I don't think Ben has a forums account...

lol, like anyone's gonna quit this game

@ mushroomman. Thanks for the link but oh man, that was months ago! There's only one way to know if he's thinking of adding mortars...

Wait, Ben wants to add mortars? Ben Askoy??

It's been said before. (That's what they be hintin' at matey)

Mortars

Well, what would I be searching?

Top left corner.

That doesn't seem to mean anything.

Search button.

Well, I that Ben wants to add mortars, so I thought it would be neat if there was a building similar to the command post that would give you mortars. When you walk into it, it gives you one. You cannot do anything anything while carrying one but walk and you walk a little slower. And when you click it places one. Is that a good idea?
