Schü-Mines

[Jurassic Fart 2]

...are not as benign IRL as they are in this game; they can cause death, but most often, they just blow off feet. Seven ounces of TNT just can't be "walked off."

Those mines do kill in survival mode.

But mostly I pair schu-mines with TNT, which generally seems to be abundant in SE5 missions, and overly abundant in survival mode.

I don't like the idea of knocking enemies unconscious unless I am trying to be stealthy. Unfortunately, if they step on a schu-mine you've already "gone loud", so I don't see much of a point. The logic is If you DON'T leave the area, then you need to deal with enemies who heard the explosion. If you DO leave the area, then another enemy will likely revive his unconscious comrade while you're gone. That's why I pair with TNT, because I needed a mine but wanted to kill the bah-stud.

combine schu mine with the secondary setting of the Teller mine. force them to gather in a big group.

Yeah, that sounds about right, Paulie...Teller mine set for two pressure detections. And fer Christ's sake, allow sleepers to be booby-trapped!

Too bad the enemies don't line up in neat rows like in SE3; you can't get three nut-shots with a single bullet in this game.

I've tried to get more than two enemies with a single bullet in this game, but the rat-bastids just won't co-operate. I think that once I got five in SE3.
