Engineers laying mines

[Weeble]

Here is are the vital stats for 'Volcano' and other SCATMINE from the Stryker Brigade Combat Team Field Manual at:

http://www.globalsecurity.org/milita...ap10.htm#10-22

Note in particular the

limitations 10-24 f

required densities table 10-3

(0.5 mines per square metre to 'delay') Mobhack was actally underestimating the number of mines required in his earlier example.

laying & reload times 10-26 c 1

( 10mins & 20mins plus movement time for an experienced crew) 3turns plus 7turns plus....

Please also note 10-28 b table 10-6

Minimum safe distance 235m (5 hexes)
Theoretical danger distance 640m (13 hexes)

You would probably blow yourself up an the approx 5% mislaid mines.

Also if they are randomly scattered how are you going to get out of the hex?
