HMG

(image)

4 men manning 2 MG42 heavy machinegun nests. Upkeep is 4. The MG42 is generally only cost productive when defending on terrain with cover to setup in. They are the second best unit for holding a village chokepoint after bunker. They are countered by tanks with a fast turret and snipers.


Special Notes:In woodlands, this unit’s ambush skill renders it invisible to enemies unless it is immediately adjacent or has revealed itself by attacking.This unit can hide in villages (with the exception of water villages), and remain undetected by its enemies, except by those standing next to it.The swarming attacks of this unit become less deadly whenever its members are wounded.
