Do landmines work?

[Shockwave]

My group and I have tried to use landmines on a few tanks recently and it did about 1% damage to the tank. It was suggested that landmines could almost one shot a tank. Once I added one to a trap with a bunch of other gas tanks, didn't seem to do much, once I put one under it's feet while it it was EMPed and it didn't seem to do much either.

I had 1 Hunter walk over 2 land mines. Only took a couple of shots with the shot gun to finish it off. I don’t think they are the powerhouse mine their description makes them seam to be.

DIdn't manage to kill tanks with landmines either.

On their own -- no. I used all the land mines available in the Defend The Hotel mission (previous game version), and looted, I think, around 20 more somewhere, surrounded them with various explosive items. So use the landmines as trigger. Without them, I couldn't have won that mission.

landmines will wipe a group of dogs out if theyre close enough together. 100% agree with kalye_amio, the Hotel mission is ridiculous without them, i saved 62 mines for the occasion. the down side really is theyre heavy in quantities so not much use lugging them around.

I used a landmine with a gas tank next to it on a military harvester. it did 3% damage. Not worth carrying the weight

Cars r more effective, put landmines near them

I had the best luck with placing a line of red gas tanks under the feet of a Tank then shooting one of them. NEARLY killed the tank. A couple more red tanks took it out.


I found land mines to be effective against the smaller robots. Maybe they aren't anti-tank mines?

They are duds...all of them.

Landmines work, but explosives are in general better against smaller robots like hunters and skirmishers instead of Harvesters and Tanks.
