We are launching a line of "cheap and cheerful" reenactment ordnance and to start off this series, we have Schu Mines and Stock Mines. These are very visually accurate pieces, which you can easily put together and they are quite inexpensive. The thing about mine fields is, they usually have mines (plural) in them, lot of them. To realistically achieve that without the budget of an army, they need to be cheap. To lay a proper minefield at an event, you need to have enough to lay them several rows deep and across an area of the event that is large enough to have a real impact on the battle. These mines can completely change an event. A single mine might be ignored as annoying, a proper mine field gets respected; it slows down movement, or completely redirects efforts. This is why we opted to make these as inexpensive as possible and tried very hard to maintain as much accuracy, both visual and functionally as possible.
These generally all need a little work and tinkering, but all of the hard parts are there. Since I can not afford an army of lawyers, I will not tell you how to make them go pop, nor will I even recommend you try to do so, I am sure the reenacting community will figure out how to use these on their own. These are not indestructible or infinitely reusable, they are cheap enough that loosing a few won't hurt too bad. Some parts may break or get lost but replacements are cheap and readily available. The Wehrmacht didn't plant reusable mines, ours are at least a little better than that.
Unfortunately, due to shipping delays on some components, complete mines are extremely limited in supply right now, luckily many of the components are standard off the shelf parts you can buy elsewhere. You are not reliant on us alone for all the parts. I am very short on the clips I am using on the fuses, so I do not have as many to offer as I was hoping. I probably should have just waited to get the parts and list these in larger numbers but I already planned space for them in the Valentine's update so I could make my silly joke. I was thoroughly committed. Yes, I thought this joke was so good I couldn't possibly change my plan for practical business reasons.
