In ''Halo Wars 2'', Lotus Mines is a [[leader]] power available to [[James Cutter|Captain Cutter]], [[Isabel]], [[Ellen Anders|Anders]], and [[John Forge|Forge]]. Whereas it is a Tier 1 leader power for Captain Cutter and Isabel, it is a Tier 2 leader power for Anders and Forge. Furthermore, Isabel and Anders can upgrade to Lotus Mines II, which has increased damage and explosion size. | |||
When activated, three mines are deployed to the targeted location in a linear pattern; rotating the camera allows the player to rotate the pattern’s orientation. Each mine is cloaked shortly after being deployed, and will detonate when enemy ground units enter its proximity. | |||
[[Serina]] and [[Jerome-092|Commander Jerome]] have their own analogues for the Lotus Mines: [[cryogenic detonator|Cryogenic Detonator]] and [[Victory mine|Victory Mines]], respectively. | |||
