Re: SEV discussion: Mines
I think mines should slow your ships down based on the denisty... ( due to sweeping ) and if you wish to plow though damage will happen.
So you could set your minimal sweep for the fleet / ships and say you say sweep 50 mines a movement and the minefield had 100 mines it would take 2 movement points to sweep it.. If it had a 1000 mines then it would take a while longer...
If your fleet is cloaked then the sweepers would be halfed... Uncloaked to sweep sucks...
Cloaking is bad as it is... this just ruins it.
I would also like to see differnent styles of mines... Yea STars had a good minesystem... it was good but not quite there.

Re: SEV discussion: Mines
Not having the pointless micromanagement of having to continuously replaced degraded fields for one.  |

Re: SEV discussion: Mines
What did you think of my suggestion (3 Posts down) for a mine system? I think that could work well or some variation of that idea.

Re: SEV discussion: Mines
Building new mines, having to continue them running... sillyness.

Re: SEV discussion: Mines
There needs to be more discussion on mining and mines - perhaps mines in the minefields ?
