Description
The Machine Gun simply issues forth a stream of bullets at a high rate of fire, though the weapon by no means often suffers ammunition shortages due to compact bullet size. The Machine Gun is mostly found on personnel as well as lighter 'Mechs and vehicles due to it's compact size, but the low damage output and range of the weapon limits it to eliminating such.
The damage from a Machine Gun can be devastating to conventional infantry. It is worth noting that the ammunition for the Machine Gun can be alloted in half-tons and well as full tons.
