Frequency of AT mine detonation

[Kil Roy]

Not that this is the norm but I was playing an OP. When I set up for the second game I placed a HQ and an AT gun right in an AT mine field. It turned out that there were about 3 mine fields there and neither the HQ nor the AT gun crew saw any of the mine fields that they were in or right next too. Three tanks moved over the mine fields for a 100% immobilized tanks. Also there were BANGS heard and engines stopped when the mines went off but no graphic to show that it was a mine that stopped my tanks. So I moved engineers into the area to check for more mines and remove the ones that were found. In the next game the set up line was moved up a bit and I found a fourth minefield in that area (yes another immobile tank) and I know engineer units walked slowly through that area. So in closing nothing is 100% in CM. I feel that there is a lot of luck in the game (as in life) and you just try and minimize its effect on your side of the game.
