The Mine Launcher

[N-Sunderland]

Now that I'd like to see!

[Squidslinger Gilder]

Gah hurry up with the codes Muse!! I'm more interested in these mines than I am the Manta!!!

[HamsterIV]

Mines in conjunction with carronade:
Cannonade get the enemy ship immobile on the ground,
Mine launcher puts mines above the stricken ship,
Carronade pop the mine's balloon
It starts raining death

I've got the perfect name for a mine-carro Pyra!

Mein Qwerty

I can see mines becoming popular in the following gun slots:

Pyra: rear left
Squid: rear
Galleon: rear
Goldfish: one of the sides
Spire: left (or possibly right if the pilot isn't gonna go for the trifecta at all)

I don't see it getting much use on the Junker, and it's likely too awkward for the Mobula.

[Captain Smollett]

Junker mine trifecta front gun and both right guns.

Honestly I think the Junker will be the best mine layer in the game.

How is the turning radius compared to other guns?

[N-Sunderland]

As far as I could tell, it was flare-like. Turning speed was medium.

Jesus.
Is there an arming time?
Or can you just slap a bunch on the side of a junker and bomb the hell outta anyone at close range?

[Shinkurex]

aoe would make you want to not be anywhere near it....

You launch them, and they fly through the air for a moment before they stop and the balloon pops out. I didn't try bombing any enemy ships, but as Shink said you want to be well clear of those things when they detonate.

I foresee kamekaze tactics.
Be they for trolling or seriousness, I have no idea.

Kamikaze ramming Pyramidion: front Artemis/mine launcher.

The lesmoked Artemis obliterates their guns and engines from afar, then switches to burst when in range for that extra disabling power. The mine launcher engineer fires a mine that lands right next to the target. The Pyra then runs straight into the mine.

[James T. Kirk]

Or a stronger ship jumping on a weaker ship and peppering it with mines until the weaker dies.

[N-Sunderland]

These things are so damn strong, it'd probably be a double kill.
