MON-50
Notes: This Russian directional antipersonnel mine is a close copy of the US M-18A1 Claymore. It is normally employed spiked to a tree, but may be set on the ground. It may be electrically detonated, or by a tripwire (10 kg to detonate). The mine may be disarmed normally (similar to the MON-100 below). It is unaffected by overpressure. This mine was copied by Chile, China, North Korea, and Vietnam; it is also used by Afghanistan, Cambodia, Nicaragua, and several African nations.

MON-100
Notes: This is a large Russian directional antipersonnel mine, identical in concept (if not design) to the US Claymore. It is normally mounted on trees, though its spike may be stabbed into the ground. The mine may be command detonated (electrically) or by a tripwire; if a tripwire is used, 10kg or pressure is required for detonation. The mine may be disarmed by cutting the electric circuit or carefully releasing the tripwire, then unscrewing the fuze. It is unaffected by overpressure. This mine was copied by the Vietnamese and used during its war with the US; it is also used by Afghanistan, Cambodia, and several African nations.

MPM
Notes: This Russian weapon is a limpet mine; it has a magnetic base to allow it to be attached to metal targets such as tanks (and then the user runs away fast). The mine cannot be neutralized once armed, but the fuze may be removed to disarm it. It is unaffected by overpressure, or even by stepping on it or running over it.

Notes: This is a Russian antipersonnel mine similar to the PMN, but somewhat larger. It is normally used in booby traps, and requires 6kg of pressure to detonate. It is often placed on top of or underneath antitank mines to increase their sensitivity or create a trap for those removing the antitank mine. This mine is also manufactured in Romania, and used in Afghanistan.

PFM-1
Notes: This is a Russian toepopper mine, commonly known as a "butterfly" mine due to its shape. It is designed to be scattered from helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, and FASCAM rounds. Normally finding them is easy by visual inspection, as they are found on the surface of the ground. This mine can be found littering the countrysides of Afghanistan, as they were used by the millions in that country's war with Russia, and they generally have a long lifespan (they do have a self-destruct mechanism, but it is prone to malfunction). The PFM-1 cannot be disarmed or neutralized except by a blast; they are 30% likely per concussion dice applied to detonate.

PMN
Notes: This is a small mine. It is a small, plastic-cased, easily-concealed mine, usually contact-detonated but capable of using a tripwire. It is in common use by Russian forces, Afghanistan, Iraq, and in Southeast Asia and Africa. It cannot be neutralized before disarming, making defusing tricky (one level harder). 8 kg or pressure is required to detonate it. It has virtually no blast resistance, being 40% likely per concussion dice applied to detonate.

PMN-2
Notes: This mine is an improved version of the PMN, and is used by Bloc forces, Afghanistan, Cambodia, Lebanon, Mozambique, and Nicaragua. The main improvement is blast resistance; it is only 5% likely per concussion dice to detonate, though a long pulse blast, such as that of fuel-air explosive, will have a 50% chance per concussion dice to detonate it prematurely. The PMN-2 cannot be neutralized, and disarming it requires a specially-shaped tool (common in Russian-designed engineer demolitions kits, but very rare otherwise).

PMD-1
Notes: This is the antipersonnel counterpart of the wooden YaM-5 antitank mine, in that it is also a simple wooden "shoebox" type mine. Similar mines are often assembled in the field by combat engineers and factories such as the Wojo factory in Krakow. The design has been copied by many countries worldwide, and can be found almost anywhere. The mine varies considerably in activation pressure, but 1-10 kg is normal. The PMD-1 may be easily disarmed, but is often booby-trapped.

POM-2S
Notes: This is a Russian scatterable antipersonnel mine, dropped by aircraft and FASCAM rocket rounds. It cannot be neutralized or disarmed once armed, except by the very lucky or skilled (Impossible: Combat Engineer roll). It normally sits on top of the ground; when it hits the ground, six legs open and place the mine upright, and two 9.5-meter tripwires shoot out from the mine in opposite directions and anchor themselves in the ground. The mine is designed to self-destruct after 23 hours, but this mechanism often fails. The mine is unlikely to be affected by overpressure (5% chance of a sympathetic detonation per concussion dice applied).

POMZ-2
Notes: This is a stake mine that can be emplaced quickly but still protrudes from the ground (it is not buried like most mines, although the mine can still be camouflaged). It is detonated by tripwire. The Russians and her allies commonly use the POMZ-2, and it has been copied by China, Cuba, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, North Korean, and Vietnam. The mine is unaffected by overpressure. The normal fuse can be neutralized by inserting a piece of stiff wire through it, but two other fuses often used cannot be neutralized and make defusing one level more difficult. The tripwire requires only 1 kg of pressure to trigger.

TM-46
Notes: The TM-46 is another steel-cased antitank mine needing at least 120kg of pressure for detonation, or 21 kg if using a tilt-rod. The normal fuze may be easily disarmed, but two other fuses cannot be neutralized once armed, and disarming is two levels more difficult. The TM-46 is very susceptible to overpressure, 30% likely to detonate per concussion dice applied to it. This mine can be booby-trapped with an auxiliary fuse well. The TM-46 is Russian-made, and is copied by China, Egypt, Israel, and North Korea. It is also used by Afghanistan, Cambodia, Iraq, Kuwait (left over by Iraqi forces after the 1991 war), and several African nations.

TM-62M
Notes: This Russian antitank mine is one of the highest-yield mines around, containing 7.2 kg of explosive. The normal fuse requires 200 kg to detonate the mine, but there is also a magnetic fuse that will go off 50% of the time when mine detectors are passed over it, or 10% of the time if a knife blade is used to probe for it. If one has a special key, the mine may be neutralized by even untrained personnel; otherwise, it may be disarmed at one level more difficult than normal. It is susceptible to overpressure if the normal fuse is used; if so, the mine is 25% likely to explode per concussion dice applied to it. This mine has been used throughout the world by Russian and former Russian allies.

Notes: This is a newer Russian antitank mine. It is easily detected, but as it has a magnetic fuse, a mine detector is 50% likely to set it off when passed over it, and even a knife blade is 10% likely to set it off if used to probe for it. Neutralizing the mine is an Impossible: Combat Engineer task, and only then can it be disarmed (at normal chances). It is not affected by overpressure. It was used by the Russians in Afghanistan, on the Chinese front, and in Europe. Passing of metal over the mine is required for detonation.

Notes: This is one of the newest Russian antitank mines, introduced in 1993. It has a magnetic fuse that detonates the mine when any vehicle 400 kg or greater passes over it. The mine is 50% likely to go off when a mine detector passes over it, and 10% likely when in direct contact with a mass of metal the size of a knife blade or greater. The TM-89 was exported to several Middle Eastern countries, and was encountered in Iraq and Iran during the war, as well as on the Chinese front. Neutralizing and disarming the TM-89 are both Impossible: Combat Engineer tasks.
