Yeah, but then deplying mines would be pointless since it would be easily counteracted by minesweepers.

The point of 1000 mines its that you don't know how many the AI have deployed when you are on the attack. (Assuming the AI will deploy more than 100 )

Its way too easy to build 3 medium transport with 15 level-5 minesweeper components a piece.

I'll check if the AI its building more than 100 per sector.
It will be a lot of fun when your safely constructed fleet prepared to sweep 100 mines warps into a minfield with 180 mines.

I don't like predictability, that's why I eliminated the 100 limit, but you have a point about the AI files, so I'll play with the in-house rule of deploying only 100 mines per sector, but I think I'll leave the AI with the 1000 limit, unless you convince me otherwise.

The question now though, its how will the AI behave when facing other AIs.
