Psychology mods? Increasing the role of troops?

In a similar vein, if you set Weapon Type to Warhead (like Kamikaze Warhead) does that mean it destroys itself? Does it apply damage to the ship? Can it only be used on a ram action?

Component Destroyed On Use

This only works on components that have a Use button on the main game interface, such as Emergency Movement/Supply and Stellar Manipulation. I am fairly sure it does not work for Cloaking though.

How about Warhead?

Does that work on Troops?

A warhead adds its damage to the damage done by the ship in a ram. It can not fire on targets.

No. Troops can not ram.

How do mines work then? Do they have a ram action? Could the mine mechanics be used on a planet to simulate booby traps, heavy defense, etc.?

Boy, I'm full of questions today. I'm at work so I can't check the game. I just have the txt files here.

Can a ship ram a planet?
