| The '''Type 14 magnetic anti-tank mine/antimatter charge''',{{Ref/Book|Id=AoH|AoH|Page=107|Detail=The name provided in the text on the page is supported by the in-game decals on the model for the bomb.}} or '''No.14 MK5 anti-tank mine''',{{Ref/Reuse|Decal}} is a piece of [[antimatter]] explosive ordnance used by the [[United Nations Space Command]]. | | The '''Type 14 Magnetic/Anti-Tank Mine''' is a [[UNSC]] explosive ordnance. This is also used as "the bomb" in [[Assault]]-type games from ''[[Halo 2]]'' and ''[[Halo 3]]''. |
|
| |
|
| ==Overview== | | ==Background== |
| ===Design details===
| | It is used as both a mine and a satchel-charge type bomb. The arming fuse can be set for five, ten, or fifteen seconds, and since inside it's packed with 6.8 kg of [[C-7]], it has a colossal area of devastating effect. The magnetic attachment device ensures that it will adhere to a vehicle which passes over it. It is used exclusively in Halo 2 and 3 multiplayer matches, and is not featured in any campaigns or in any novels. |
| The Type-14 is an [[antimatter charge]] used by the UNSC as an anti-[[tank]] [[landmine]].{{Ref/Reuse|AoH}} The bomb weighs {{Convert|32|lb|kg|disp=flip|sp=us}}, and is magnetic in nature - allowing it to latch onto the armour of vehicles.{{Ref/Reuse|Decal}} It consists of a olive-brown circular casing with a rim around the middle. The top and bottom of the casing have a detachable panel, and the sides are covered in labels reading:{{Ref/Reuse|Decal}}

| A unique variant of the bomb forgoes the extruded ridge in favour of a cutaway around the middle, from which a red light is emitted.{{Ref/Reuse|H2A}}
| | ==Messages== |
| | The messages seem to correspond to what map is used. |
|
| |
|
| The [[Covenant]] employ the {{Pattern|Riruku|void maker}}, an antimatter charge of similar size, for similar purposes.{{Ref/Mode|HR|Invasion}}
| | For instance, the message ''"Thus I Refute Thee"'', appears on the maps [[Ivory Tower]], [[Waterworks]], [[Turf]], [[Backwash]], [[Elongation]], [[Relic]], [[Foundry]] and [[Last Resort]]. A similar description of the bomb is present on Bungie.net's matchmaking stats section, of the service record. |
| | ''"Hold Onto Yer Butt"'' appears on [[Ascension]], [[Burial Mounds]], [[Warlock]] and [[Gemini]]. |
|
| |
|
| ==Gameplay==
| | ''"Kiss It Goodbye"'' on [[Coagulation]], [[Headlong]], [[Sanctuary]], [[Terminal (Level)|Terminal]], [[Tombstone]] and [[Foundry]] as well. |
| It is used exclusively in [[Assault]]-type games from ''[[Halo 2]]'', ''[[Halo 3]]'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' [[multiplayer]] matches. In ''Halo: Reach'' Invasion gametypes, players playing as Covenant Sangheili utilize a {{Pattern|Riruku|void maker}} for similar purposes. | |
|
| |
|
| In Assault games with standard settings, the bomb will have an unusually high melee strength, to compensate for the bomb carrier not being able to use their weapons. The bomb is usually a one-hit-kill from any angle.
| | A hieroglyph of a [[Spartan]] helmet, the "V for victory" hand gesture, then xoxo & hearts; appears on [[Lockout]], [[Midship]], [[Beaver Creek]], [[Colossus]], [[Zanzibar]], [[Foundation]], [[Containment]] and on [[Desolation]]. |
| | |
| ==Production notes==
| |
| The name for the bomb was first provided in an out-of-game source in ''[[The Art of Halo: Creating a Virtual World]]'', as the '''Type 14 magnetic anti-tank mine/antimatter charge''', corresponding with the decals found on the in-game model in ''[[Halo 2]]''. When the page was first made on Halopedia, the name was written as '''Type 14 Magnetic/Anti-Tank Mine''' - a naming convention not used in any known source material but seemingly based on the ''Art of Halo'' label. The later [[Halo Waypoint]] article on the [[HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark I ADS|Mark I ADS]] in ''[[Halo Legends]]'' seemingly lists its armaments as including the [[Type 18 Magnetic/Bayonet-style Claymore]] - seemingly-copying the naming convention established by Halopedia.

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| *The bomb has scripted messages embedded on it, each designed for a specific multiplayer map. For more, see ''[[Messages on bomb]]''. | | *Additionally, it is used to portray Andy in the [[machinima]] series ''[[Red vs. Blue]]''. |
| *On [[Bungie.net]] and [[Halo Waypoint]], the description for a Bomb Explosion kill in ''Halo: Reach'' is 'Somebody set us up...' which is a reference to the "[[Wikipedia:All your base are belong to us|All Your Base]]" meme.
| | *It has been remade for use in several custom maps on [[Halo: Custom Edition]], behaving similar like an Assault Bomb. It has both a fifteen-second fuse and a five-second fuse. |
| | | *Oddly, even though it is UNSC equipment, it is named similarly to Covenant vehicles and weapons (type ##). |
