Mines and tank Traps

[void]

I think the reason is why people seldom place mines because most players play offensive / agressive. They forget that this tactic is cost-intensive. If they dont inflict more cost on the attacked than what's inflicted on themselves... the counterattack will begin. And then a well - placed minefield can be a step towards victory. But that requires some planning and long term thinking - however it's easier to quit once your ressources are spent and waste your ressources in another game. That's what I see very often with super agressive players.

BTW don't forget your officer, he got smoke grenades for calling in explosives crates that contain approx 60 AT and 120 AP mines for free!
