Placing mines on enemy rallies is so simple yet smart. I can't believe I haven't thought of it. By the way, do you know how much the weight effects soldiers' performances? I rarely arm mine with mines because it's so heavy.
Difference is negligible. The benefit outweigh the cons anyway so arm them how you like. As you level up your troops, you can upgrade your stamina perks so weight slowing you down isn’t really an issue. Moreover, you can arm your troops a canteen, that can mostly counteract any weight difference with infinite stamina for a while (your troops don’t survive for long on average, anyway)
