A payload of explosives connected to a basic sensor system. Explodes when enemy ships get too close, dealing damage to all within its radius.

These mines do a lot of damage and can devastate an enemy fleet that is jumping into a system. These with a small fleet and some SMAC guns will defend a station with ease.

However, the best way to assault a system with mines is to send a small fleet in to clear a way to the SMAC guns. If this fleet is good to clear the way have them destroy as many defenses as possible. You might lose this small fleet, but it is the best way. After this fleet is gone send in a much larger fleet to take the system. Around one planet there is a max of 150 mines that can be placed.
