![]() ![]() When fired, the Rockets will leave a distinctive smoke trail and the process will produce a loud sound which led Allied troops in the war to dub it the "Screaming Mimi". These rockets are fully capable of Friendly Fire as well. ![]() The rockets have a high chance of killing whatever they hit directly, and leave the ground burning for a few seconds afterwards, damaging unarmored units. After a short travel time effected by distance, they fall on the target, dealing major damage to Infantry and Buildings- especially unarmored buildings like the Machine Gun Emplacement, Observation Post, or garrisoned neutral buildings. ![]() ![]() The rockets "disappear" once fired, meaning as soon as they go off screen the first time, they're no longer effected by obstructions. When the weapon is ordered to fire, the weapon fires six rockets at the targeted area (aimed vertically as to fall on the target) at a rate of about a rocket per second. Picking up the weapon is also a relatively fast process. The weapon has a large, but not total, "cone of fire", allowing it to turn drastically horizontally, though requires repositioning to be fired behind where it's facing. The weapon itself is operated very much like an Anti-Tank gun- it is hauled into position by its operators, before being deployed (which takes a second). After the crew's death, it can be re-crewed by any Infantry squad with at least two members. If two crew members are killed, the third will automatically die as well unless an existing reinforcement is about to complete, and the weapon will become unmanned. If one of the weapon operators is killed, the Unteroffizer will take his place. In-game, the Nebelwerfer is a support weapon, with a 3-man crew- two men carrying, aiming, and reloading the weapon, and an Unteroffizer armed with a pistol. It is a light Rocket Artillery piece, firing High-Explosive rockets at enemy positions (in-game it ahistorically uses Incendiary rockets instead). The Nebelwerfer 41 (English: Fog thrower) is a mobile artillery platform used by the Wehrmacht during World War II. ![]()
