<center>''Were you also looking for the [[Brute landmine]] or the [[TR/9 Antipersonnel Mine]] from [[Halo 3]]?''</center>
This '''landmine''' is a stationary explosive mine employed by the [[United Nations Space Command]].{{Ref/Reuse|BNet}}


==Design details==
This '''landmine''' is a stationary explosive device. In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', these landmines may be placed in [[Forge Mode]]. They serve as an integral part of the [[Race]] gametype.<ref>http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_081310</ref> It functions similarly to the [[TR/9 Antipersonnel Mine]] from ''Halo 3''.
The landmine is a large circular explosive planted on the ground. It has a circular blinking red light in its center.


==Gameplay==
==Trivia==
{{Quote|What’s a landmine? Should be obvious, right? A small, metal platter with a flashing red bulb perched on top like a violent, blood-soaked maraschino cherry on a death-dealing sundae. You’d have to be some kind of moran not to instantly know you need to steer clear.|Urk.{{Ref/Reuse|BNet}}}}
*Landmines will typically appear in the Race gametype on most maps.
===''Halo: Reach''===
*Landmines can be activated by proximity. If you drive close enough to one, it will explode after a short delay. This can be used to stop any player following close behind you.
In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', these landmines may be placed in [[Forge/Halo: Reach|Forge]] mode, under the "Gadget" section. They serve as an integral part of the [[Race]] gametype.{{Ref/Site|Id=BNet|URL=http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_081310|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Bungie Weekly Update: 08.13.10|D=07|M=6|Y=2012}} It functions similarly to the [[TR/9 Antipersonnel Mine|Trip Mine]] equipment from ''Halo 3''. The landmine is able to kill a fully shielded player, unlike the Trip Mine, which only takes out a player's shields.

*Unlike the Trip Mine, the Landmine is not activated solely by motion. Thus, trying to crouch walk slowly over a Landmine will detonate it.

If you drive close enough to one, it will explode after a short delay. This can be used to stop any player following close behind you. Oddly enough, however, [[Evade|Evading]] over a trip mine will not detonate it, and the mine may even be thrown into the air from the impact.

===''Halo 4''===
The Landmine returns in ''[[Halo 4]]'' with no changes whatsoever.
 
===''Halo 2: Anniversary''===
The Landmine returns in ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' [[multiplayer]] with no changes whatsoever. The game introduces an EMP variant of the landmine, which has a blue light in its center; its explosion does not damage players, but emits an EMP pulse that disables nearby vehicles and trigger the standard landmine.
