    Can chest mine's trigger when an opponent is in smoke?

    This skill does not say it needs LoF. It just says its a BS attack.

    Chest Mines Skill
    CHEST MINES SHORT SKILL / ARO
    Attack
    REQUIREMENTS
    EFFECTS

    This weapon has two Modes of use, as a BS Weapon and as a CC Weapon, also it has a special Self Detonation in CC.

    • BS Weapon. The Chest Mines work as Direct Template Weapons with limited uses. In this Mode, the user can apply the Twin Weapons rule, if he has not spent either of his two Chest Mines (Disposable 2).
    • CC Weapon. In CC, the Chest Mines work as a CC Weapon and don't use a Template.
    In CC, this weapon applies a MOD of +3 to the CC of its bearer.
    If the user wins the Face to Face Roll, the Chest Mines will affect all enemy troopers in base to base contact with its bearer. This weapon cannot be used in CC if there are friendly troopers in base to base contact with its bearer.
    • The detonation of the Chest Mines in any of its two Modes does not affect the bearer.
    • Self Detonation in CC. This effect will only apply if the bearer is engaged in CC. If the bearer of the Chest Mines falls Unconscious while engaged in CC, each unconsumed Chest Mine will detonate at the end of the Order in which the bearer falls into said state. Self Detonation affects all enemy troopers in base to base contact with its bearer.
    Self Detonation will not apply if there are friendly troopers in base to base contact with its bearer, or if the trooper goes directly into the Dead State.
    • The Disposable (2) Trait is shared between both Modes. The bearer of this weapon has only two uses available, no matter the Mode he would be using.


    Thanks.

    inherently, all BS attacks require LoF unless stated otherwise

    Chest Mines weapon profile says it has Intuitive Attack. It should work against targets in smoke in the active turn using the Intuitive Attack Order, right?

    yes, the intuitive attack trait allows you to declare the intuitive attack skill with that particular weapon – note this is a different skill than what the OP linked, being the "Chest Mines" skill.

    Another question regarding the CC ability of chest mines:
    Do they count as a CC weapon itself or can they be used in addtition the existing CC weapon?
    i.E. can Kendrat use her DA CC weapon while using the CC mod from the chest mine or does she have to choose between the DA CC or the chest mine (with the mod)?

    I would say its a CC weapon based on this line.

    "This weapon has two Modes of use, as a BS Weapon and as a CC Weapon, also it has a special Self Detonation in CC."

    She must choose between the two weapons because the chest mines are a weapon

    But she can use the DA CCW and the Self Detonation will still happen if she goes unconscious.

    Which, of course, means she'd have to miss out on using Dogged. (Ref: Dogged - explode mechanics)
