@Steve T Re “However, mortars are Indirect firers so don’t need to use Advance orders to rotate,   as they don’t have a facing.]” – Not sure where you’re getting that from about fixed mortars (or any indirect fire shot) not needing an advance order to get a shot into arc.  They have the same requirements as any other ‘fixed’ weapons, they just don’t suffer any -1 ‘to hit’ penalty for the advance order as they use the ranging in process instead, and they can shoot over intervening friendly units (even LOS blocking terrain with the benefit of a spotter).
