I've almost given up on mining in my base anyway, since nobody really gets stopped by mines anymore- and anyone who does is usually not bright enough to do any damage anyway. Whenever I use a tech/hotwire, I'm too busy running around repairing stuff to lay mines(building under attack, tank back from a battle, infantry, turrets, etc). They're more of an early warning system now than they ever were a defensive weapon; they make a nice big boom youn can hear across the base, but will almost never get a kill.
This could be pulled off on maps with few entrances and defenses that can cover all the entrances(Hourglass, Under, Field) Where at least one or two buildings are not likely to be hit by an APC rush. Then you could easily spare the mines that would have been used on that building and apply them to a tactic like this.
"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. Horrid mischief would ensue were (the law-abiding) deprived of the use of them." - Thomas Paine
Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.

Yeah, I don't know where you play but defense is key always. Under is another map where Nod really needs to mine well to prevent people walking in the back door. You can get to everything but the refinery if you can clear the first stretch where the ob can shoot you...
And on maps with no base defenses, not mining means you want to lose.

That was the point, I thought I made that clear. I can try it again if you'd like.

This tactic sounds best applied when the enemy team is camping right outside your base and pointwhoring on a structure not protected by the base defense (i.e. the Nod airstrip on Under) and would be good to take out a few tanks that will just not go away.
