drop them right on thier head as you pass for ai
pvp now that would be telling !

mines are good when your running away from a battle and the enemy keeps on distruping your engines

Mines are best used in bombing tactics, where you use shield busters to drop the enemy's protection, then launch a few mines when you are close enough to guarantee a hit. This could mean right in their face in a stronger ship, or on a high speed pass in a lower level ship.

"Although I do not consider myself a member of the Bounty Hunters' Guild, I find that their goals and mine often follow the same path. I will aid them when I can...if they give me a percentage of the salvage from whatever they frag along the way. Hell, they were even so kind as to sell me a ship after one of my jobs with them, and I've been flying her ever since. But god help them if someone puts a bounty on THEIR heads, for I don't care who I hunt for, as long as their live capture(or untimely death) can get me enough credits to buy a decent sized mug of my favorite drink."- A Freelance Bounty Hunter.
