If you look for me in game, I will happily show you the sheer power of the Munk.
just add me in game and PM me as soon as I log on.
The Mann:
in KOTH, Squids can have a miner on the back, other guns disable, Flamer and Barking Dogs are popular choices.

I may just do that. I have experienced the power of a munker with an experienced crew before. Honestly, it felt like a pez dispenser dishing out pure salt. The name calling was real. Thankfully, I kept my fingers away from the match chat button.

I think my go-to squid is gat/woof gun/flamer, however that is subject to change as I learn. It has just been what has worked best for us, a crew that is used to sniping pyras (and metamidions from our truly novice days). So, pure mine squid isn't the best call? Even if it provides a wall of death around the point if deployed correctly? I'm not questioning your knowledge, I'm asking to learn :).
Alistair MacBain:
A Mine Squid can work. Thats not the issue. Its just pretty hard to make work of as youre much more likely to run in your own mines. A junker with its mainly sidewards guns is much less likely to hit his own mines.
In terms of pure firepower a mine junker beats a mine squid due to the trifecta potential. In terms of maneuverability the squid is obv the winner.
Byron Cavendish:
The key to the munker is knowing the exact range of lesmok mines and normal ammo mines. It has a high demand of pilot knowledge. All crew (including the pilot) need to be familiar with how to shoot with lesmok and normal. Your gunner needs to know that plus burst and lochnagar range and use.
