Bombs on legs (mini-nuke perk)

[MrMysteriousPointMan]

Mini-nuke is fun and extremely devastating, but I can't find any situation to use this perk.
Already completed the campaign on realistic.

Any thoughts?

It could have been devastating if the player was able to control the hacked unit. But in it's current form, I think it's poorly designed.

If you want to take out a legion tank in urban environment, you can send a team with emp and mini-nuke to deal with it. By luring it to get near a building, you can emp it when it is about to pass the corner, then use the mini-nuke perk on it. Then, get out of the blast zone and nuke the tank. Since each emp grenade only cost 2 supply point, this is the most supply efficient method of destroying a legion tank.

Also, in fort worth mission, you can turn an enemy supply truck into a mini-nuke, and detonate when it is passing the capacitors. Though I would recommend weakening the defense before destroying the capacitors.

My experience with EMP in general is extremely negative. It's laborious to set up for effective use, and unreliable in a crisis. Your whole squad is likely to wipe before that one guy can find the bomb in his pants.

I'd rather spend less time brute forcing my problems. Micro-managing fifty little things with the speed and alacrity of an FPS pro gamer is a young man's game.

Yeah. So the perk is kinda useless.
