Description
The Machine Gun simply issues forth a stream of bullets at a high rate of fire, though the weapon rarely 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 its small size and weight, but the low damage output and range of the weapons when used against armored targets limits their lethality.
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 as well as full tons.
