Are Teller Mines worth it compared to regular PE Mines? They are pretty expensive, but I guess their specific targetting of Vehicles and high damage are worth it.

1 hit m10s, m18s, all light vehicles(exept stag :/). and if u hit a dmged roo with it all the inf inside it will die coz he has no time to get them out.

totally worth it id say, but sometimes things go wrong and every single one of ur mines gets spotted Sad (one time me any my teammates got hit by like 4 of our own teller mines in a row)

Lol, doesnt really matter if your a noob or pro with the the tellers, sooner or later an allied tank will hit the mines.

Really saving sometime, but also a waste as leo says, and that allies wont hit it at all at the match.

If your one of those people who just have a knack at placing mines in the right spot, then I'd recommend Teller Mines.

If your utterly clueless as to placement of mines then it's a very hit or miss thing and I'd stray away from them.

I mean I know Obama was the first one in EiR to get a card. and tbfh the Race card is pretty OP. but Romney has the K.K.K., those guys seem to camo anywhere. So OP units from both sides.
At the end of the day, however, stormtroopers finally got the anal invasion with a cactus they have richly deserved for years.

Nothing like a destroying a tank before it really gets the chance to use it...
Or even better still, a tank turning round to try and get away from destorying some of your men and "BOOM". Dies to a teller mine.
The best thing to do with them, is lay them on HIGH traffic areas (of course). If you see a tank/Vechile near the teller and if you have some men/vechs tanks nearby, Try and bait the tank onto it and then laugh has he runs over it Cheesy

Oh, Ignore Hicks, he doesn't know what hes talking about. Seriously, Place it on a road, A tank/vech is GOING to hit it sometime(Unless you've retarded put it on "your" side of the map).

Edit:- One of best places I find to place mines if your clueless is Crossroads. Plonk one in the middle, and if they don't see you placing it, Then your BOUND to get something, Mainly because Tanks find the quickest way to places, so it uses road as much as it can, so this makes crossrows high traffic Tongue

Best way to use them, if your opponent is using roo's place them on one side of a building and park a sexy target on the other (its amazing how many people call roo's OP but no one thinks to use thier strangths against them)

if its other tanks, place it in a narrow/often used path, and once again use bait

...I want to give an example. So I will use the most played map...Nuenen.
So, You should know theres a church in the Middle of the map with the grave yard, theres a gap between the 2 roads and these two locations. Place a teller there. A Tank/Vech will cross it. EVERY. GAME. Thats the BEST spot. You will hit something there. Unless they spotted it, or paranoid because they hate playing against you and your tellers.
Another good place, Above the church you should see a small Crossroad (you understand what I mean if you scroll up from church), Place Another Teller a mine there. Thats another good place for it Cheesy
I can pretty much guarantee some mine hit/kills with both those places.
The church one will be hit first, then they will hit the crossroad one later in the game in MOST of your games Cheesy

So yeah, Crossroads are your friends. And high traffic places too.
Don't be afraid to place it on a random but used roads though. You might get lucky Tongue
