Helo shot down at speed of 150mph...

Sticking with the unlucky theme, but a little more down to earth now. I started a little generated campaign today, small infantry force playing against irregulars on 30 x 30 maps.
Second or third battle in and in the first turn after deployment, I find three IEDs/booby traps deployed right next to my troops! Quite an alarming start to a battle!

To be honest, I first I thought that shouldn't be allowed to happen, but I actually found it added a good dimension to the game. I'm still a little unclear as to what exactly triggers them when they are controlled by the AI, so all I could do was turn off the weapons of those units that were adjacent, and start to slowly move engineers in to disarm them while the battle raged around them.
