In-game description

A Crow's Foot Minefieldis a player-built defensive structure designed to stop the advance of enemy infanty through an area.

Construction

It is built by upgrading a Prepared Minefield with 10 Crow's Foot Mines. Equip a Crow's Foot Mine, press F to switch to upgrade mode, then press E on the minefield and select the upgrade option. Submit the mine with LMB then submit 9 more to finish the upgrade.

Use

Each mine on the field detonates when an infantry of vehicle gets close to it, inflicting the same damage as a standalone Crow’s Foot Mine. After exploding the space where the mine was can be safely crossed. Unlike standalone Crow’s Foot Mines, the mines on the field cannot be dismantled with a Wrench.

The amount of mines remaining on the field is linked to its health. With a 10-mine field, each mine detonation will remove 10% of health. If the field takes 50% damage from outside sources it will lose five mines. The field is destroyed if all mines are detonated. The field's health and its missing mines can be replenished by repairing it with a Hammer and Basic Materials or automatically over time via the decay prevention mechanic of Bases and Maintenance Tunnel.

Visibility

Unlike standalone mines, the field is only visible to players if they are less than 35 meters from it. It cannot be spotted from afar with Binoculars.

Resistance

Minefields are very resistant to most Damage Types except High Explosive (Artillery) and Demolition.

Tactics

The easiest way to destroy a Crow's Foot Minefield is to have armored vehicles simply run over it to detonate every mine while receiving virtually no damage. A field can also be destroyed with 2 Hydra's Whispers or 3 Alligator Charges. A single charge placed between two adjacent minefields can trigger 4 mines on each field thus creating a wide enough path for any vehicle to cross.
