Thanks for your response
Larger warheads do not cost more, just the (little) research to get the tech. Always use larger warheads if available. Larger mines cost more, so are not effective because of sweepers as below. IMO Small Mines/Large Warheads. As per the DSGuide, make cheap small mines with only one warhead to get more mines out.
