Not weapons?

Tell that to 2 destroyers and an escort that just met their demise in a game I'm playing.

Or am I missing something here.

They are not weapons because weapons are useable in combat. Mines only affect ships out of combat. So, they are not weapons.

Hmmmm

I am wondering if the difference is how we view weapons.

I view a weapon as anything that limits, damages or destroys an asset of the enemy.

Would it be correct to say that you view a weapon as something that limits, damages or destroys an asset of the enemy but also must be shown on a combat screen?
