Overview[]
Relatively heavy and bulky, the MM-1 can provide considerable firepower, with practical rate of fire as much as 30 rounds per minute. It can be useful in ambushes and other fast-paced close combat scenarios.
Though underused by many Consortium players, these are very useful against TFT and basically just about any enemy infantry, especially when their ammunition are upgraded to deal further damage.
Usually used in pairs of 2 or more. The MM-1 can be used to empty buildings of enemy infantry. Well placed on roofs around a bank to provide support by re-emptying a nearby bank should it be captured again.
