You had to test it? It just depends on squad spacing. You should know that :/

I thought there might be some bug applying from the wording he did.

First of all, start here.

Upload a replay and ask for someone to review it on the strategy section.

What is your ranking? Against who you are struggling to win? Faction?
It's harder to give specific advise without knowing what you are having a hard time with.

Do you have the means to record your gameplay? This is something that will be missed by watching only a replay.
This is more likely a general advice for playing RTS in general. Be intelligent with your current APM (action per minutes). There are a lot of low ranked players who have high APM but waste their actions by overcommitting to a single unit, fight or even moving units from place to place.

Minimap/Tactical map is your friend. IF you want to use the tact map, i suggest rebinding the numbpad 0 button to a mouse button or other key which is more accessible.

If you are not used to constantly check the minimap or you sometimes get too absorbed in the action which hinders your multitasking, open up any site with a chronometer.

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaUe-Hf0uSM

Every time you hear the sound, check the minimap/tactical map/unit shield on top right.

________________________________

Use hotkey and control groups. Download any custom hotkey program such as autohotkey (ask here how to set it up).

It's a matter of preference, but using the gridkey layout on the menu results in an easier way to memorise certain abilities such as snares or grenades.
On control groups, this is really subjective on how to use it. For example this is my personal layout.
1-3: key units. In early game it might be an MG, sniper, light vehicle, pak. As the game transitions, so as well the importance of a unit. The MG control group transform in your tanks for example.
4-5: support units. Indirect fire units and engineers.
6-8: Howitzer/Rocket arty. Engineers. AA units. Any type of unit which doesn't require "finesse and fast" reaction as it's farther away from the natural position of the hand.

Just like when you learn how to type with a keyboard, start slow with a reduce number of hotkeys and slowly start adding them. Make yourself a personal patron which you can follow as to reduce any kind of mental effort input. You achieve RTS nirvana when you don't need to think of menial tasks which leave you space for you to think in the actual game at your hands.

Be real and know that sometimes you face way better players that your currently self can't defeat. Use those matches to focus on smaller things in order to improve. Set smaller goals such as "let's not get units wiped in the first minutes of the game" or try to not lose as hard by getting your whole army annihilated. In a normal game, you need 2 VPs to win. Forget about it and try to focus on a more "defensive 1 VP" strat. Harassing other point and VPs is fine as long as you don't waste too much resources on it.

And that is why I suggested changing how passive auras work including PzIV. My point is that you pay more than PzIV for a units with a lesser gun that adds 1 hit in more cases. The effects are good (in 1vs1 and 2vs2) but not broken.

If the unit is nerfed any more it will simply become obsolete.

Which is not something you originally stated.

The unit doesn't deserve nerfs, at least not now in the current powerlevel.

I think soviet "field craft mines" describes "trip wire flares" and not mines. PMD and S field mines can damage more 1 models.

Tripwire has a separate entry on the changelog on the same patch.

Small AI mines I assume?
Its 40 on initial entitiy triggering it and then depends on aoe profile.
Absolute worst case scenario is you need to hit 2 to lose tightly packed squad.

I've done some tests but as far as I could tell, the damage cap is always there for the 30 muni mines. Mines triggered by vehicles or explosions seem to always kill a maximum of 2 models as well.

Tellers however kill whatever is in the explosion radius.

That was the answer i was looking for.

Single AI mines should had been changed according to changelog.
-Soviet Field Craft Mines damage increased to 80
-Soviet Field Craft Mines can do damage to a maximum of 1 member in a squad

So unless OP provides a replay i run out of ideas besides calling BS.
