The vehicle mounted ones are very accurate...

Do you know the maximum distance (even roughly) that these can be deployed from a FB.

I ask because it is an important advantage to keep the location of your FBs unknown to the enemy, therefore hidden from the direct sight...... bla bal bla

I only bothered to read what I quoted as I know you too well TC for just blabaring on for ages about one point and looked at the end of the topic and it looks like im right, please in future keep it short unless there is loads of points to be worth that long

Yes we are aware of the issue of these kinda thing giving away FB positions etc, like I said we have not done any rules to these so far we may even make it so they do not require in a radius for them to deployed. Deployment rules will come later thou we will consider everything...

All deployables have a small side effect that if anything is in the way of the object being deployed it will "crush" the player, much like a jeep falling on someones head. Just tell your squad to stand clear when you deploy a object and make sure if your the one deploying it you deploy it in a clear area so this dose not happen.

Its only a small 90deg or something rotation facing forwards, hence the sandbags being built up on the side so deploying this in a good position will be critical to how useful they are.

Very, not used the 50cals on the jeeps?

I assume we can dual wield these like this: YouTube - Dual Weilding M249 Machine Guns

have you have seen a 50cal? you need 2 guys to lift it safely, they are really, really big and heavy.

ME Usage of the MG3

Iran - License production by DIO as the MGA3.

Pakistan - License production by Pakistan Ordnance Factories.

Sudan - Made by Military Industry Corporation as the Karar

The MKE in Kirikkale produces since 1974 the MG3 for the Turkish Armed Forces. MG3 clones are built in Yugoslavia and other countries.

sure the MG3 is no .50cal, but its firerate should make it okay again, it fires damned fast

And assymetrical weapons are always good.

[Fabryz]

Nice work! We needed some sort of it in the field

[Neo_Mapper]

Im just thinking about it now, what will happen if you deploy such a thing in the bunkers of kashan xD 100% deathfield for every enemy infantry who didnt throw some smoke before

No dual wielding would be silly, however just the one is entirely sensible
