Minesweepers

Does anybody know if multiple warheads on the same mine can hit different ships?

IE: if you have one mine in a sector, with 10 modded warheads on it, and 10 ships fly in without sweepers, will one ship take all the hits, or will most of them suffer light to moderate damage?

Each mine can hit at most one ship; a hit -- against no matter how insignificant a ship -- eliminates the mine outright, period.

"Skulky, you mean mines 'skip' shields? Or did I misunderstood?"

Due to recent legislation pushed by the Save-Outer-Space-from-Cosmic-Radiation-Group, all ships are required to travel with shields inactive in any area likely to contain minefields, especially warp points.
