Early:
To sweep minefields the enemy will most likely build DDs with a shield and bazookas. Frigates dont work and before the bazooka sweeping is hopeless. These early sweepers are easy to counter:
Frigates are cheaper, ligher (you need one less range), better shield stacking and better damage as you got only one token and the DD has 2! (dont move into your detonating fields!)
You will always have a better skirmishing fleet early


n00b question: why does the DD have 2?

n00b question 2: i assume Any/Any disengage orders just fights while disengaging? but doesn't disengaging require so amny turns of no combat?

and also, is there any way to make ships stay in the cover of the starbase instead of charing out there? even on max-defense, they seem to go out to fight and let the starbase get wasted; and then if they lose the enemy takes on the starbase by itself
