Default Minefields

is there a good way to test minefields in the simulator? Just trying to figure out how many mines I need in a field.

A simple answer to your question is to lay as many mines as you can per each field. It only takes one or two high tech mine sweepers to clear a large field so the more you have the greater the chance of taking out an enemy ship.

And do mines require a warhead, or do they just add power?

Mines do require a warhead I believe.

They don't require them to build a mine, which is why I am a bit confused.
