Mine Clearance: What's the best way?

[Liquid_Sky]

I have noticed that if your engineers make their morale check at the beginning of the turn, they then clear the mines...so even if they get disrupted they can still clear if you get lucky.

I am clearing mines in Stalingrad right now, and what I am doing is hitting a belt about 10 hexes wide with a single engineer battalion in each hex...the ones that clear then move unto the disrupted engineers to help them out until the belt is done...cleared hexes get a full stacking limit of riflemen who then dig in next to the Germans (who are in Bunkers), while I wait for my artillery to disrupt the defenders.

Something always gives.
