— In-game description |
The Abisme AT-99 (a.k.a. "AT Mine" or "Land Mine") is a large deployable Explosive Charge that serves as an Anti-Tank Mine.
Uses
Specifications
it is deployed on the ground in 4 seconds and only detonates on contact with the following armored vehicles, enemy or friendly: Armoured Car, Tankette, Landing APC, Half-track, and Tanks.
Its explosion deals 850 Anti-Tank Explosive damage. It cannot be deflected by Tank Armor and always disables the tracks subsystem.
It can be dismantled by crouching and using a Wrench.
It is instantly destroyed if it receives any amount of Demolition or High Explosive damage. It is immune to any other kind of damage.
A deployed mine despawns after 48 hours if it isn't triggered.
Visibility:
Deployed mines are visible to all soldiers on foot. Vehicle crewmembers and passengers can see friendly mines as well as enemy mines placed on roads, but enemy mines placed offroad are invisible to them. So it is advisable to have someone on foot scouting for mines if moving into a new area. They aren't concealed by the night's obscurity or when placed in bushes (will show colored outline).
Usage
As a Large Item, a soldier can only carry one at a time on their shoulder. It can be submitted to a stockpile or inventory with V
, it can be picked up from the ground with V
and dropped on the ground with Shift+V
. The mine can be deployed on the ground as a standalone mine.

on a valid location to start a short deployment animation - The mine becomes active 3 seconds after being deployed (the builder can only trigger it if they leave the detection radius and enters it back).
It can be deployed on nearly any terrain, on dry Beaches, on Bridges, on Roads and paved areas. It can't be deployed on rocks, on top of or inside structures, or in the no-build zone near region borders. It can't be placed less than 2m from another mine.
Minefield Material
It can also be used to upgrade a Prepared Minefield into a Abisme AT-99 Minefield.
Production

Storage
It does not stack in inventories (1 per slot).
It can be stored in the stockpile of Bases (32k max) but also in Material Pallets (60), Material Transfer Stations (1000), Rooster - Tumblebox Trailer (32), Small Flatbed Car (50) or Storage Rooms (100).
Crates of Abisme AT-99 can be directly submitted to any item stockpile that accepts that item to transfer their content. The crates can also be stored in the crate stockpiles of Storage Depots (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Seaports (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Shipping Containers (60), or Storage Ships (1000).
It can be transported by almost any vehicle with inventory slots, but is most commonly transported by Trucks, Small Flatbed Car, or shipping vehicles carrying Material Pallets. It can also be transported as crates, either delivering them to a Base's stockpile with a Truck or to a crate stockpile with shipping vehicles carrying Shipping Containers.
Trivia
- If multiple players deploy mines at the same time it is possible to place some mines very close together, bypassing their distance restriction
- A couple vehicles (Landing APCs, Silverhand Lordscar - Mk. X) have open-top seats close enough to the ground that a mine can occasionally kill the crew or passengers
- The Abisme appears to be visually similar to the German Tellermine 42, taking inspiration from its fuse, carry handle and overall shape.[1]
- Possibly due to a bug, there is a small chance for the detonation of a mine to not affect the vehicle triggering it.
- "Abisme" is the Catalan superlative inflection of the Grecian conjugate “Abyss". Which translates as "A field of craters".
- The use of Catalan suggests the AT-99 originates from Estrella. Explaining its use by both factions.
