DO NOT TAUNT!

Double checking some Twilight: 2000 things.

The line which caused so much consternation with Neo/Open/LibreOffice was the one about the 155mm ADAM shell.

That's Area Denial Artillery Munition.

This lays a minefield of 36 little wedge shaped bouncing betty style mines.

There's a manually deployed version of the mine called the M86 Pursuit Deterrent Munition.

The warning section in TM 43-0001-36 is the interesting part.

• -- ONCE ARMING STRAP IS LIFTED, DEPLOYMENT IS MANDATORY.  DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RE-SAFE.
• -- SAFE SEPARATION TIME IS 25 SECONDS AFTER STRAP IS LIFTED.  LEAVE AREA IMMEDIATELY AFTER EMPLOYMENT AND DO NOT RETURN TO AREA
• -- THE M86 MINE HAS A SELFDESTRUCT FEATURE WHICH MAKES IT EXPENDABLE: THEREFORE, DO NOT RETURN TO AREA.
• -- DO NOT DEPLOY MINE BELOW -25°F.  IF MINE IS DEPLOYED BELOW -25°F, MINE MAY SELF-DESTRUCT EITHER IN A 5-MINUTE TIME-FRAME, OR LATER THAN THE PROGRAMMED SELF-DESTRUCT TIME-FRAME.
• -- DO NOT REMOVE NOSE PROTECTOR OR NOSE PROTECTOR TAPE.  REMOVAL OF TAPE MAY DAMAGE THE ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION (EMR) AND ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PROTECTIVE PAINTS.
• -- IF ONE OR MORE TRIPLINES ARE FOUND DEPLOYED PRIOR TO USE, DO NOT ARM OR ATTEMPT TO USE THE PDM.  TURN IN MINE FOR DISPOSAL.

This cute little pie wedge fires out trip lines out to 20 feet from the mine and if you bump one, pop, BANG!

There's stats for this beastie in High Tech!  8d [2d] cr ex.  Which I cannot figure out from the 21g charge of Comp A5 which should give 2d-1 cr ex...  Grenades and mines don't seem to follow the explosives formulas given in Basic Set and High Tech...
