So something like a mortar? The problem with that is it would basically be impossible to block or dodge, so it would have to do really, really low damage, on par with something like a Noricum, and possibly even have a minimum effective range.

Everything has to have a weakness or a way to counter it. Zenits for instance can be fired over obstacles, but it's easy to dodge them just by walking towards or away from the shooter because the rockets are so slow. A mortar round would travel much faster, so it wouldn't be as easy to dodge, especially if it has a large splash area.
