There's no hard and fast (obviously) but I usually lay mines inside doors, and use a shape like the number 5 on a dice. There's absolutely no point in laying them too close to each other, or in a pretty little line. I lay mines assuming the enemy will run in/through doors, not stand still. Also don't overlook the benefits and additional damage of a head-height mine.

Don't always lay mines with a view to killing characters, as for higher value ones you'll need more, and use up the limit. Though boinks are pleasing, I usually aim to make a foot soldier that badly wounded that team mates can finish him off quite easily/quickly, and repair/disarm quicker.

Finally it really depends on the map, the stage of the game and the ease with which the other side can reach and enter structures. Lastly, remember there is a limit of 30 mines, including remote C4, so place wisely and check your eggs often!

Some ideas, there are many more [Smile]
