[quote who="DesConnor" reply="13" id="2922185"]My problem with mines is that the damage output is small and becomes relatively smaller the longer the game goes on. They aren't a deterrent to experienced players at all, as they can be 'swept' by ignoring them, as long as you don't allow your ships to bunch up. Also what often happens is that one LRF will hit a mine and is somewhat damaged, the fleet stops instantly, the minefield can be avoided and later swept.

[quote who="Timmaigh" reply="50" id="2921941"]No, hehe. I admit there are some big differences between DoW 1 and CoH, but these do not make them nothing alike. Both are RT strategies, right? Both are set for smaller scale battles, theyre no SupCom or Sins in this regard, you rely on packs of different kinds of infantry supplemented with occasional tank, mech, etc... In both you need to get hold of the strategic points all over the map. In DoW you have heroes and commanders, in CoH you have th

[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="6" id="2921663"]I'm going to posit this question then... Should a single scout be able to reveal infinite mines within a certain range (as it currently does in Dip v1.2) or should it reveal only one at a time?[/quote] I think that it should be a middle ground; a scout reveals a few mines within a certain, somewhat small radius. This way, you need multiple scouts, and multiple flaks to clear minefields; the scouts "mark" the mines, and the f

Reply to Testing Potential Improvements/Changes to Mines in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I like this idea. Very, very interesting. However, I think that the scouts shouldn't kill the mines. I think the pretty much everything else is gold. Just, not the "scouts kill the mines by revealing them" part, as, IMO, it's a much too radical departure from the way Sins plays. Considering the cheapness of mines, IMO, they could easily be obsoleted by five or ten scouts, which are very easy to construct. Particularly for the TEC.
