Minefields (some tips)


Recommended Posts

Note that scouting minefields with your poor infantrymen you sent to their deaths isn't a sure way to determine whether the path is clear or not. There are anti-tank and anti-personnel mines placed randomly in certain areas. Your infantryman can walk right on top of the AT mine and you'll lose your vehicle thinking that the way is clear. On the other hand, a vehicle will quickly carve a safe path for infantry through anti-personnel mines field. Problem is, that in most cases in the game, like in real WW2, those minefields are mixed.

How to deal with the minefield?

1) It's best to avoid it altogether;

2) Your infantry will automatically defuse the mines if they are crawling (set them to crawl only mode by right-clicking the moving mode button - bottom left of the orders panel);

3) You can set off nearby mines by powerful explosions (artillery and mortar fire starting from 100mm caliber or so, bombs).
