I apologize for my spelling ability.
I've been playing Entrenchment for some time now and have noticed an issue with the mines that I think should be corrected.  SoaSE takes place in a 3-D world.  When the Varassi lay their mines, for the most part they only lay the mines on one layer of the 3-D environment.  this means that if a fleet jumps in to a system on the right layer they can completly bypass the varassi mine field.  I believe that something has to be done to correct this otherwise it makes the mines less effective than they should be. 
I also would like to see the scout ships, for all races, obtain a new ability.  I don't have a name for it.  What I would like to see is an auto mine sweep ability.  In other words upon activation they automaticly begin moving around a system looking for mines and disabling them.  as it is now clearing a mine filed is near impossible.  I've sent in fleets with scouts to clear mine fields and rather then taking their time to destroy a mine and then move they just  move into the field to kill the mines....obviously this results in death. 
I also believe that there are a few things that need to be corrected about the star bases.  The varassi ability to move is awesome but I fear that it makes the varassi base too powerful when compared to the other starbases.  I believe that they should all be able to move...or perhaps allow the other races to build two, maybe three starbases in a system.  other option could be to increase the range of bases etc.
