Brennan's Triumph squash mines - help!
I got to the mission where i got to scan the gate for coordinates or clues i guess but its full of squash mines and even if i get one down they all explode and i can't figure out if the game ends cause i blow up the gate or the squash mines blow me up (Argon Discoverer) - I got as far as 300-500m to the nacelle in the spacesuit but nothing happened(the quest) and then the squash mines exploded so i can only figure that i must come back with a 5MW-25MW shielded ship or something... what do you think/did ... help!
This is how you do it
And there you have it...............

If you haven't got any missiles get some ( you'll need about 4 or 5 ) then go to the gate and cycle through your targets till you get to squash mine you need to be about 2-2.5 Km from the target ( from memory, if that distance doesn't work try 1.5 Km ) then launch the missile and repeat for the rest of the squash mines. NOTE that one missile takes out several mines, once they are all gone go up and scane the gate. It's as easy as that.....
Like the phoenix rising from the ashes, I will spawn again.....
For president ... I recommend mosquito missile i havent tried it out but they are the cheapest and it shouldnt be too hard to find them if you got the fast Discoverer you can get east and you find Argon systems eventually you'll find a space dock or missile factory or you can go west back towards Argon Prime and you will surely find some.
You'll find wasp missile factory four jumps away at teladi i think(Turuk's beard)

that only works if you have a centaur or the like though. Wouldnt recommend flying through with a disco! 
Me, I flew in with my Orinocco and hit them with Alpha PACs - the few that went off close enough to me to do damage splashed of the 2 25MW shields I had installed. And no. I didn't cheat. I just took my time before I got around to heading into Brennan's Triumph.
It annoyed Mi-Ton no end that I didn't turn up with his precious TP for so long - that thing has good cargo capacity & you can get the speed up to something decent for just 10K
I managed to capture some pirate ships with it on the way home with an Alpha PSG in the rear turret.
Patience is the key for this game - The first time I did that mission I did it in my Disco - the best method was to shoot a pirate once to annoy him into following you, then run around behind the gate so he flies into the mines for you
There were about 4 mines that survived the third pirate raid into their territory and I had to go find somewhere to buy a few missiles for them.
