Alpha, I am currently in turn 33 of a game, your rage have 3 different ships that have mine sweeping comp currently. They have PPB as well (ship Last encountered had ppb5/minesweeper II(2 of them), pdc5, and solar collector 1).
They also currently have two light cruisers in service that are 'mine layers'. Mine layer I was designed on turn 15, mine layer II was designed on turn 27. They are currently sitting at 7 out of 15 in scoring. With my Y'Gathian FreeStates at 1, Q's CueCappa modded race (v2) at 2nd, my own human player at 3rd, then the Klingon, tdm-Xi'Chung, the Cepholopeia (Squids, AI in design stage), Toron, Borg, Colonial, the rest are Neutrals.
Using the latest tdm-modpack and the latest patch.
(HARD game too, the Rage on one side, the Borg on the other, both their ships outclass mine.......damn I'm havin' fun
)
