There actually is a way to sweep mines without obnoxious amounts of micro... I stumbled on it by accident. What you do is create a separate fleet made up of nothing but scouts and flak frigates. They will move as one blob, so you don't have to worry about moving scouts and warships separately, and you can just move them near a minefield and they will auto-kill every mine in range (Which is fairly long for flaks). You still have to move them around manually to plant them

It took me a while to figure out how to sweep mines. Finally I figured it out (At least for TEC, should work for the Vas as well, Advent may be skrewed). If you make a fleet of nothing but scout frigs and flak frigs, they will make a nice, solid formation together instead of splitting into two lines. This can very easily be placed near a group of mines, and the flaks will tear them to ribbons in a matter of moments.

I played a game today, and the effects were disappearing again :( So I guess maybe it's not the particle count. It's really annoying... The shi
