Help!! - Heat of battle!! Can't find the answer!

[golf_prez]

Good day all!

My PBEM enemy has employed cloaking devices! I have warp points that are populated with either Satellites or Mines.

Will the Sats or Mines "detect" a cloaked ship that passes through the Warp Point.
Will my mines explode even is he is cloaked? (and hopefully kill him - I expect they would....
Will my Sats fire? - I would doubt they would....

Any quick answers would be appreciated, as the enemy is quickly and invisibly approaching !!!!

Mines don't care whether or not the target is cloaked -- they just go *boom*, unless the target fleet sweeps 'em.

Satellites, however, won't attack unless the ships are detected.
