No, not the same turn, in that case it will die.
If it is at the same sector as the sweepers at the same day it will enter combat even if it's not fleeted with them (If cloaked it will decloak).
The turn after he will propably have a minefield there again, see Jimbob's post below.

Any fleet you have must include capacity to sweep 100 mines, never move that fleet without supporting sweepers in it!!,Never!

I have sweeping ships now, but it takes 10 destroyers, yet, to sweep 100 mines. How do you slip a cloaked ship through this mess?<hr /></blockquote>You don't even try, sorry.
Save it for when you take your next fleet with those additional 10 sweeping destroyers with you, or better yet, research larger hulls!

How are you going to do that? If you select a medium transport hull in TDM/unmodded SEIV, you have to fill it for 50% with cargo bays. Doesn't leave a lot of room for minesweeper components.

Whatever happened in this game? Did you end up beating up? I need some closure!

Sadly the game died as a result of some of it's players being unable to take it as a game.

He begged me to stop the war since he apparently was aiming for a peaceful resolution to the game, I declined and continued my intel programs unhindered...

then things got ugly between us IRL.

The game was cancelled shortly thereafter as a result of lack of interest.
