Quote:Not always true. Once you have enough explosives to kill any opponent, adding more/upgrading only increases your bounty for very little gain (building damage). You are better off carrying mines around in this case, until your opponents get more hp.
I would use your own argument here, if you can not spend 2200 upgrading an explosive, why would you spend MORE than that to buy land mines. Unless you get the huge ones, you arent going to have enough damage. If you are seriously out of action that long as an expoder, then you are not doing your job right. If you do die, the land miens will provide more bounty than upgraded explosive package.
I buy plenty of things, upgrades, factories, speedpack, detectors, etc..
If you are buying mines, you are sitting around hoping to draw out a kill. Not very good use of your time since everyone else is creeping and getting stronger. You want to keep your explosives at the minimum damage needed to kill all the tanks, or at least more than half to someone who puts in for an upgrade. I generally can build up a good chunk of change, so when someone does buy that gold hull, or goes frost robot, I can throw in some upgrades, or buy another explosive pack.
