Vickers Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 Hello there! I'm working on a new scenario for CM:BB and I need some clarification on how units successfully remove anti-tank mines. Its my understanding that you have to move pioneer units over the area where you think the mines are, and after a period of time they become neutralised. Is this correct? and do the pioneer units spot them if they are still hidden from view?

flamingknives Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 1. There are two types of AT mine: a) Daisy Chain 'normal' AT mines 2. a) Quite easily spotted Only spotted after you run over them 3. a) cleared by engineers/pioneers cleared by engineers/pioneers using demo charges 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belaja smert Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 Originally posted by flamingknives: cleared by engineers/pioneers using demo charges How does this actually work? Do you just move them close to the minefield and they clear the mines automatically or do you manually "area fire" the demo charges onto the minefield? And how close do you have to be? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conscript Bagger Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 They'll throw the DC on their own, but sometimes it takes a turn or two. Not sure on the max range for this; it might be 30m. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kestrl Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 You can read all about clearing landmines in the CMBB manual, just look in the appendix under The Environment, Mines, and Clearing Mines page 64. The manual says you need to be within 25 meters for a engineer/pioneer with demolition charges to clear mines and depending on experience it takes a few turns. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't read the manual since I got the game and leafed through it once 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
