Want to 1v1 or something the next we find each other online?10-20 ships with no weapons to clear a minefield of 150 mines before they get torn apart by my 10+ SMAC grid or the 10+ squads of Longswords.
I fortify before I meet anyone else.
Good luck.

I like people settling strategy disputes by using them against each other.

Also, mines are generally a useless defense especially when you can just take the scouts and run them through to detonate if you can't be bothered about actually clearing.
Mines, when place correctly, can cause a lot of damage to a fleet after coming out slipspace...

Most people have the sense to send a single scout ship to actually take a look before sending in the bulk of your fleet.Mines, when place correctly, can cause a lot of damage to a fleet after coming out slipspace...

Havent lost a battle yet 
i usally always have a fleet nearby the planet to respond quickly\
Also i put it to where its half way on the mac circle so if one dies the other two close by can also attack the one ship so there would be 3 macs shooting at once

Guess we could spam cheap frigates as cannon fodder in all senses.
Best solution: Find a way around.
That's probably the biggest buff to turrets/MACs is that you can place them really dam close to the edge of the well with no room to manuever around.
