To the best of my knowledge, you *WILL* receive a message telling you how many mines you sweeped before your ship was destroyed.

until you find a minefield with 16+ mines.
After you lose one minesweeper ship, try sending in two together; if you lose both, try three, etc.
I think Mine Sweeper III's sweep 7 mines each... so 15 sweepers would clear 105 mines... Haven't checked MS V's yet (haven't researched that far).

Re: Q and A
Minesweepers sweep mines according to their level, unless I missed something in the latest patch.

Re: Q and A
Sinapus, you're right. I was thinking 7 because I have 7 sweepers on my minesweeping ships. Which means 15 MS III's would take out 45 mines... still a pretty good number, and much better than just 15...

Re: Q and A
Hmmm I think you do not under stand (or I don't) the mark V sweeper sweeps 5 mines and I have 15 on a ship, So it should take out 75 mines and with 2 ships at 75 thats 150 yet I still lose them
