A good source of info on German AT weapons, even though its a geocities site :p. It's got a pretty low bandwidth limit though, so don't be surprised if it won't load.

I don't think mag-mines would be that unbalancing, since they had to be attached by hand to ensure the magnets "caught". It would be similar to satchels in the mod, except that you couldn't even toss them a few feet like the satchels. As long as the Russians had one of their own AT grenades, say the RPG 43, then it wouldn't be a problem.

I've got a German AT video that shows mag-mine usage, I'll try and get it online sometime.

And did you know... ?

The Germans invented Zimmerit to combat anti-tank magnetic mines - and not a single one of their enemies ever used any? The only ones who did were the Germans themselves :) Wonderful waste of effort!

well i guess the idea is that eventualy they're enamys would.
and had the war lasted longer they might have... or not because there wouldnt have been a point to it as all the german tanks has anti-magnetic mine stuff on them.

but its allway a good idea to have a counter to your own weapons, cause your enamys will probably try and steal your ideas if they work.
