Anti GEV mines

If you want to take out a GEV/Grav/VTOL then what about the Wide Area
Mine system (Or WAM for short, take the tanks out before they go go... sorry
couldn't resist!). I'm think this works on an accoustic recognition system.
Having said that any IFF [Identify Friend or Foe]system attached to an
'inteligent' mine system would do.

Presumably the same kind of system used for the "Jumping (sic) mines" from
DSII.

Just a word from the ignorant

The problem with Raptors[1] is that the game degenerates into 'dueling
robots'. Realistic is nice, but it gets old quickly.

[1]Raptor Combat Outpost is a mix of Hornet WAMs plus
extra sensors and control units.

DSII is sufficiently abstract that we can assume any minefield is a mix of
types countered by an equally generic mix of countermeasures. Doing much more
than that bogs the game down badly and makes all of you too easy to beat when
you get a real engineer involved. There is a reason this is a seperate career
field.
