oh so that's what the give ammo feature is for in CE
I guess you can use it for RPGs too since the weapon and the ammo are really freaking heavy
also this whole time I thought you needed a radio pack for directing on-map artillery, but apparently that's only needed for cross-map fire (i.e. home base has mortar, caravan has radio)
