RE: [GZG] [ft]Minefields [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

["Robertson, Brendan" <Brendan.Robertson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

1 mine per turn = 100 turns to lay a complete field.

No overlapping is to make things simple and slightly balanced; if you allow
overlapping minefields, with enough money you can make planets/bases
effectively invulnerable to attack.

Not entirely sure what the third question is; but the diffence in number of
mines attacking is again a balance issue.  There is a large damage
difference between 10 beam mines and 10 salvo missile mines.  Mines attack
whenever you pass within 6 MU of the marker (similar to the various FT
terrains such as dust cloud and asteroids).
