Revealing a minefield happens when a unit enters its hex. An Engineer that enters it and is still eligible to battle must clear it instead of battling; clearing replaces the battle and is not an extra action. Any token counts, including a 0. An Engineer that has moved 2 hexes is not eligible to battle, so it cannot clear the minefield and it detonates. The publisher said the FAQ would state that an Engineer cannot battle after entering a zero.
