GetAssista -> RE: Do minefields work in river hexsides (3/6/2019 3:45:03 PM)

Mines seem to do absolutely nothing in the rivers. At least in the locations I tested, like Yangtsee from Shanghai to Nanking. No matter traversing, amphibious landing or bombardment TFs, 500 freshly laid mines in a hex never hit a single ship. Base/nonbase hex does not matter. Traversing through the hex or stopping in it also does not matter.
CDs (a pile of all existing CD Bns Japan has in Stock, 10+ units in the same ex as a minefield I tested above) were only active against amphibious landings and bombardments. And it was somewhat underwhelming experience, e.g. they were able to shoot up only 3 out of 15 APDs in a TF
Edit: not all the river hexes are bad. E.g. mines work at Palembang or Rangoon which are technically up the river. I do not know the pwhex specifics to look inside the narrow/wide straights coding (maybe?) to see if it differentiates mine-friendly river from non-friendly one.
