Talk:Minefield Mapper/@comment-28216345-20170925160856/@comment-454133-20170925165020

BTW, please don't duplicate a post on multiple pages. It tends to split up the conversation and make it awkward to answer questions.

The idea of dropping 12 mines on the battlefield at the game's start is indeed exciting (you could completely encircle your enemy in a thick layer of mines if they start in a corner). But I should note that it's currently unknown if Minefield mapper could deploy all 12 mines or only 6; it's based on how you interpret the wording, and that's very contested right now. FFG has not provided a response yet. The common ruling from TOs is the conservative one (you can only drop 6 of your 12 mines), simply because that's the least powerful option and they err on the side of no power growth.

You can visit this link to discuss the rule (not here please, it needs to be on FFG's forum).
