Ah! well that is true, and I must admit I was a little surprised at the range available to 'mortars', which were essentially short range seige weapons. So, maybe its not going to be a problem, although cannon in general probably ought to have a longer range in truth. They were effective up to 800 yards, the only real problem was being able to see something worth firing at.
