MP 28/II

Weapon 🔪 Submachinegun ⚡ Foreign Design 📦
MP 18

The MP 28/II is a German submachinegun chambered for a wide variety of calibres, though it is most often found in 9x19mm Parabellum. It is essentially an improved version of the MP 18, designed almost a decade later as an export gun for the international arms market (though it was purchased in large quantities by the German government itself). The MP 28/II includes a fire selector and a bayonet mount. Additionally, instead of the somewhat unreliable Luger P08 32-round snail magazines issued with the MP 18, this model uses conventional 20, 30 and 32-round box magazines. MP 28s are actually easier to find today than their predecessors owing to their commercial success.

Abilities

Common Attributes - Mechanical

Auto

This weapon is fully automatic, either inherently so or by the presence of a selective-fire mechanism.

EFFECT:
This weapon can fire more than one shot each time it is used. Each subsequent shot has a progressive penalty.
Automatic weapons are considered STABLE when they're mounted on a vehicle, tripod or turret. This is different from the Stabilised SA.

  • Point Blank Range - No penalty.
  • Close Range (≤10m / 2sq) -> -1
  • Short Range (≤50m / 5sq) -> -2 (STABLE: -1)
  • Average Range (≤200m / 10sq) -> -3 (STABLE: -1)
  • Medium Range (≤500m / 20sq) -> -5 (STABLE: -1)
  • Long Range (≤1000m / 50sq) -> -5 (STABLE: -3)

         ~ Beyond this point, automatic fire is unfeasible without a STABLE firing platform. ~

  • Very Long Range (≤2000m) -> (STABLE: -3)
  • Extreme Range (>2000m) -> (STABLE: -5)

Common Attributes - National

Offensive Mentality - German Small Arms (WW2)

German soldiers during World War II were always forced, by strategic circumstances, into a defensive posture. This idea was habitually thrown aside, as they'd been trained to attack, attack and keep attacking until the enemy was dead and victory was achieved. Apparently, it worked.

EFFECT:
This weapon's damage is maximised if, in the same turn, its user performs a Sprint (1 AP).

Unique Attributes

Unentrencher - WW1 Assault Weapons UA

Some weapons in the Great War were used to great effect to break the stalemates of trench warfare. Assault units made up of specially trained stormtroopers from both sides of the battlefield would jump into the other's defences, putting the fight up close and personal.

EFFECT:
This weapon ignores Half Cover. Against an enemy in Full Cover, treat them as if they were in Half Cover.
