Suggestions for Making Mine Removal Easier

Suggestions for Making Mine Removal Easier

As everyone is well aware by now, removing mines sucks. It is slow, time-consuming, and requires way too much micro. Therefore, I have come up with some suggestions (besides a mine-sweeper ship/ ablitiy) that would make removing mines easier. I don't think that these have been suggested before, but I apologize if they have.

  • If you colonize a TEC owned planet that has mines around it, all of those mines should be destroyed. This won't work with the other races, because their mines don't have to be around planets that they own, so I have other ideas for them.
  • For the Advent: If the host (carrier or hanger) is destroyed, all of their deployed mines should be destroyed as well, just like with regular strikecraft.
  • For the Vasari: When you destroy a mine-layer ship, all of that ship's mines should be destroyed, too.

Those are just my suggestions. I still think a mine-sweeper of sort sort should be added, too, because with the Vasari and Advent, the "host" won't necissarily be near its mines.

Amazingly (by sheer coincidence no doubt), this is actually a situation where flak is very useful...also works well against aerias with mines since they can shoot the squadron before it deploys the mines...

^Why would anyone build aerias with mines?

Looks to see who necro'd, finds out it wasn't Sel. Is shocked to find out Sinkillr would try to deceive. Goes about business

You imply that Sel necro'd by mentioning ARESIV's comment, thus you attempted to deceive.

I merely stated Sel did not perform the necro and that you attempted to make it appear as though he did. Where is my deception?

Let's face it guys, I really do troll too much and I should stop...

Today, I tried a unique strategy....I spammed DISCIPLES, and won....but honestly I think my opponent was more like "who would spam anything other than flak?" and just gave me a pity win...

Lmao? Man you keep embarrassing yourself with each and every post. When did I imply that Sel performed the necro? I merely stated that his comment about aerias was a troll post. This was obvious to anybody with even the slightest amount of reading comprehension. Stop trying to troll lol, you just don't have the easy elegance of people like Seleuceia.

What's the point? Everytime I write detailed posts the forum trolls just dodge and turn the thread into a troll one.
