Spider Mine

"Because it explodes, like a Spider!"

- Unknown

Description
Spider Mines are large anti-vehicle explosives designed to securely latch onto a surface. They can be pre-timed, or less commonly remote controlled. Once activated they cause a directed explosion downwards, focusing most of the force of the blast onto whatever they are attached to. They are fairly resistance to impact but very volatile if opened up.

A single Spider Mine is sufficient to blow a significant hole out of a Skiff and can easily wreck it completely if attached to a vital area. They are less effective as anti-personnel weapons due to the focused nature of the blast.

Spider Mines fetch a fairly good price, from the right seller, but are very dangerous cargo not only due to the accidental risk of explosion but also due to how unkindly anyone would take to them being brought into their town.
