Our first DS gaming involving mines went  like this:

(Me, as ref to the newbie with mines) Don't think of them as
things that blow up but as impassable terrain where you want
it.

She treated it that way.  Opposing player first tried to blow through
them and lost 3 of 4 heavy tanks in the unit.  After that he avoided
them quite well and her placement won her the game.  He ended up
running the gauntlet on the road.
