Machine Gunner is a combat role for soldiers of the Czechoslovak Legion.
Overview[]
Machine Gunners are heavy infantry used to lay down suppressive fire against groups of enemies from their automatic weapon.
Normally, machine gunners fire bursts at the enemy. They are effective at holding narrow areas and chokepoints, as they can deploy their weapon to focus fire at a longer and narrower area.
Machine gunners also become cover specialists later on, making them harder to flush out. They also heavily benefit from upgraded weapons, increasing fire rate and chance to hit.
Antonín Kůra is the first machine gunner, who the player gets to control.
Requirements[]
- This role requires 5 Fitness, 4 Dexterity and a Role Point to unlock.
