M18A1 Claymore Mine
The M18A1 Claymore is a directional anti-personnel mine developed for the United States Armed Forces. Its inventor, Norman MacLeod, named the mine after a large Scottish medieval sword. Unlike a conventional land mine, the Claymore is command-detonated and directional, meaning it is fired by remote-control and shoots a pattern of metal balls into the kill zone like a shotgun.
A Claymore uses two Cone templates placed side-by-side as its burst radius. Anyone within this area takes full damage. Anyone not under cover in a 180-degree arc behind the Claymore out to 6" must make a Spirit roll or be Shaken due to blowback. Anyone who rolls a one on this check is hit for 2d6 damage.
