Hi folks, new player here and loving it so far.

I've been playing the editor and set up a simple scenario with a "Red" minefield and a "Blue" patrol area for MCMV's to sweep a path through. Using 1 x Sandown, 1 x Hunt and 1 x Avenger in a Mine-clearing mission they seem to detect the mines ok but so far haven't managed to destroy a single one without taking damage themselves. There's about 15 mines in the area they're sweeping and I lose at least 2 usually all 3 MCMVs.

EMCON's set so that sonar's on, and the MCM/Pod equipment turns on once they start the mission.

I found a video on youtube (can't post links as a new users but it's called Mine Warfare in Command - Part II: Mine-sweeping by DimitrisWS) and he takes damage but not from every mine like I am.

Am I missing something or is mine hunting/sweeping really that dangerous?
