Machine Gun (A9)
General term covering any half-inch support weapon machine gun: Light, Medium, or Heavy. All three share the same two-number Strength Factor format, firepower on the left and Normal Range in hexes on the right, and all are dependent on Personnel to portage and fire. What separates them is firepower, range, and how much each slows down the unit carrying it.
