What were more of the common ones used? Also, if someone knows the mortar thats used in Wolfenstein that also would be great.

Thanks

Are you referring to Return to Castle Wolfenstein on PC or Xbox?

Im referring to Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory on the PC. When you play as a soldat you can use a mortar. I was wondering what this was called since it doesn't name it.

It's a french Brandt Mortar.



Just read the game's help files:

81mm Morser / 3 Inch Mortar
Both Axis and Allies use variants of the French Brandt 81mm/3 Inch Mortar design. To use the Mortar, hit your Alt Fire Key (Z). Once the Mortar is readied, a Mortar round can be fired by pressing Fire. The elevation (range) and azimuth (lateral direction) of the Mortar can be adjusted by moving the mouse using the crosshairs as a guide. The lower the angle of elevation, the further the Mortar will fire. You can observe your fall of shot either by line of sight or by looking at your Command Map (G). Field Ops may designate targets for your Mortar as they call in Artillery Strikes. A targeting reticule will appear on your Command Map and in your Mortar sights. You can then aim for the reticle, in the knowledge that your Mortar rounds will be falling on the correct bearing, although you may still have to adjust elevation.
