Re: Over 100 mines/sector
it happened quite frequently to me that I run into this kind of minefields, and usually I lost my entire fleet, or at least large parts of it. so far all mines there that I couldnt sweep exploded. this means I didnt encount a limit like the one you mentioned.
my guess would be that the 30 mines that didnt explode were layed by you in the turn the enemyfleet entered that sector.

Re: Over 100 mines/sector
The time that I and an ally tried it they all blew up until the enemy made fleets capable of sweeping 200 mines.

Re: Over 100 mines/sector
Juri, are you playing a mod with special damage warheads? If you had enginekilling mines and all teh enemies engines were destroyed, the rest of your mines would not explode.
Also, did you have more then one mine design and foget to put warheads in some of them?

Re: Over 100 mines/sector
no mods
well there were mines of more then one design, but they were not *my mines* as in- I didn't design them- as the other player donated a mine layer filled with his mines to me and I then layed the mines for him... this saves time.
but I don't believe the mines were withouth warheads... I can check though, I still have that turn saved somewhere

Re: Over 100 mines/sector
Yes I checked again and I'm looking at that turn right now. There is an ENM fleet sitting on top of 18 (not 30, I got the numbers a little confused before) of my mines (my flag on them) and they are of Medium size and each of them has 3 Mine warheads class III on it.

Re: Over 100 mines/sector
Well, I just did a test now. I had two allied races mine the same sector, 100 from 1 race, 78 from the other. An enemy fleet with 100 minesweeping capability was completely destroyed by entering the sector.
