Since we are able to get large pouches for more ammo/first-aid kit/repair kits or 3 gernades…has any thought been given to a pouch to carry more mines? They had soldiers who specialized this in the war…combat engineers (maybe Engineer III) and Sappers. Maybe they could also have the ability to drop gernade/mine crates like Medics and Engineers.
You could even give then Bangalores.
Mine pouch: when equipped multiples the amount of mines a soldier has by 5.
For combat engineers they can release event squads and allow them to use SMGs.
I’m actually shocked that we can’t do this yet. Or at least have a supply truck you can drive into battle. Tanks have the ability to rearm and greyzone, but we can’t rearm grenades or mines to get them.
No, just…no
At least not AP mines
It could always be 3 mines instead. That number seems more balanced.
If you can have 3 explosive packs, there is no reason you can’t have 3 mines. Guerillas even have 5 TNT charges.
Try the Big action mode.
You can run an ammunition resupply point — you can also build one.
Additionally, the Russians can construct mine crates (AP and AT).
Otherwise there’s the paratrooper option: you can equip them with mines, then after the drop you pick a class (scout or AT) that also provides mines. Result: the paratrooper ends up with 2 mines.
Imo, AP mines are so nerfed that you can put 2 or 3 to be sure to kill someone. 1 ap mine is really usefull to cover your own rallyes point and to trap ennemy’s rallye. So yess, we need an option to carry more mines, but not all soldiers should able to do this.
AT mine are usefull too if you know where to put it and how to conceal them, because sometimes they’re easy to spot and destroy (dig a small hole or hide them in trash/among objects rather than leaving them alone in the middle of the road… although there’s always an idiot who might drive over them because he isn’t paying attention).
