Yup we need more replays like this one, thanks for posting Luciano. Pridepost is such a stupid word, if your game lasts longer than 25 minutes it's just a GG not a pridepost.

Live or FBP?

USF mortars are even cheaper than that at 240. However, I haven't seen anybody spam USF mortars ever since before WBP.

Hint: it's the difference in range

That's because the description of the M20 mine calls it an "M5" mine, which is complete nonsense. The M5 mine is the weaker AT mine Riflemen can put down doctrinally. The game game correctly calls the mine the Brits use an M6 mine, but claims that it is an improved M5 mine, which is again complete bogus. But hey, this is the company that introduced a unit called "Obersoldaten"...



Mines are highly situational and easily countered, if you lose a vehicle to a mine, you did something wrong, end of story. Unlike demo charges, mines stop working as soon as they are spotted by minesweepers, so even if you can't immediately disarm a mine, the mine doesn't pose a threat for the time being anymore - again, a demo charge still works, and since Pioneers have to basically sit on top of that thing to kill it, a demo charge is still a threat even when discovered.

And then you are also factually wrong about the Riegelmine, because it doesn't have enough damage to destroy the current version of the T-70 (320 damage vs. 400 health). That means even against light vehicles, you need either an additional Panzerfaust to kill them, or an AT gun - which means the mine works only slightly better against light vehicles than a Soviet TM-35, for a significantly higher cost.
