    @alexander

    yea they only defend one way and the sweeping takes place during or after CM but before combat

    Edit
    I asked the Captain for clarification https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/36945/axis-allies-global-1940-house-rules-expansion/885

    Edit 2

    So they sweep during CM

    Screenshot from 2026-02-10 17-32-36.png

    That tells me that the SZ can have Enemy Ships/Vessels present.

    I have asked him for clarification. I doubt we hear from him until tomorrow at earliest

    Edit 3
    So from a few days ago

    Screenshot from 2026-02-10 18-02-12.png

    So the NMs only defend one border same as LMs. I can see why it would seem counterintuitive but 🙂 thems the rules 🙂

    @beelee Yes, what you have makes sense.

    But with the way I layed them along SZ31/32, I believe you cannot conduct sweeping operations this turn as it is hostile waters. (you would have to eliminate my Escort in that SZ. Then next turn you can either sail though the NMs (rolling for hits) or then conduct sweeping operations.

    I don't think it matters if ships are coming to/going from a SZ, so long as the boats cross that 'boarder' they would trigger the mines.

    @Trout You should be good to go

    @beelee Hi Alex. Should I go ahead with the USA/China/UK turn, or are you still meditating on whether to revise your Naval Mine positioning?
