Traps and Literal Landmines

[ways and means]

So if a player had to defend a base and set up dozens of traps (rolling craftsmanship each time) in the narrow corridor to get to a underground temple (specific goal location) how would you run this in combat? Should each hidden trap be considered an ambush (with alertness rolls) and should each trap be rolled as an separate attack when the enemy triggers it (fails alertness test)?

Sounds good to me.

It should be easier to treat the base as an entity, sort of. You can then have a normal conflict with it, when you are trying to force your way in. Powers and stunts can represent the fortification and weaponry of the base, things like landmines can be treated as aspects created in advance to be tagged appropriately. I think it makes such a scene more interesting than having to roll against 20 traps successively.

Either of your ideas sounds alright to me.

If you want to stat the house as an entity for some reason, I suggest you use the Hollow custom power.
