Mine effectiveness

[disabled]

Part of the effectiveness of mines is that you cannot see them. If you can see them, then you can destroy them before they are useful.


I would change how they work.

1 - Mines can only be seen until you are nearly on top of it. Large fields are more visible. Appearing as storms and debris fields.

2 - When mines are placed in the same spot as thier owner's ships and are attacked, the mines may detonate first (damaging the attackers), then combat will begin.

I'm not sure if these were already suggested but I think SE should have a form of "The Fog of War"
