Tutorials/Land mines

Although a land mine is not readily available in Minecraft, you can create one by following these simple steps:

1. Acquire a pressure plate and TNT by either crafting them in Survival or Hardcore mode, or by selecting them in Creative.

2. Dig a hole 2 blocks deep.

3. Place a block of TNT in the bottom of the hole you created.

4. Place a block of stone or wood (use stone for a stone pressure plate, wood for a wooden pressure plate. Stone is reccomended because it blends in with the ground)

5. Place the pressure plate on top of where you placed your land mine.

6. Have Stevie or a mob walk over the pressure plate, and watch the mob die!

It may be helpful to place more than one block of TNT in the whole. The hole must be at least 2 blocks deep. Also, in Survival or Hardcore mode, this technique may be useful around your house. DON'T STEP ON IT THOUGH!!!
