Still puzzled.



I think there are some rare cases in which your mine sweeper can start the turn in an enemy minefield. For example, if the enemy mined the orbit of one of your planets and you build a mine sweeper at its planetary space yard.
I never saw anything like that in my games, anyway, so I can't say if it works...
