Removing mines

[Wiking]

The only units that remove mines when facing a hex filled with them are engineering units. Any infantry units that remove mines will have to be inside the hex I believe? Anyone more knowledgeable about this please correct me.

I always avoid this problem by placing minefields on either side of razor wire and keeping at least 50 meters between my dug-in infantry and the mine belt.

Yes, only engineering units (engineer, engineer support squad, commando engineer, engineer tank, mineclear tank etc.) remove mines from adjacent hexes.

So simply not placing your engineering units next to such defenses tends to go a long way towards preventing the problem in the first place.
