Well there is now a Mk 19 and H&K GMG so NATO Forces both have a GMG. Technically, the MEC could also have the H&K GMG, as they have a lot of H&K, however there a quite a lot of other options for a Fictional Force. We could always just have assymetrical balance... that's if it's even allowed in game ;)

Also some refs for Brits:

Hope that helps :)

remember this weapon wont have zoom, its a 25 rounds a belt before reload, it doesnt have a very long range and the longer the range the less accurate it gets.

it will only get a couple of belts so you can not camp with it for a lon gperioud, + you are not inside a rmoured vehicle so i dont thing the weapon will be to l33t.

Make the limitations realistic. Don't just buy into the stereotype of grenade launchers being overpowered, because they're really not.

Yes but do you see any scopes on the render.

We are going for the iron sight version, like yoiu have on a grenadier kit.

dont think you will be able to aim with optics, if ya want to shoot to far distance, you need to aim very high(like mortar) or implement system, which used in ACE mod of ARMA

Why? The Dutch forces use Elcan optics on the GMG.

One sniper/marksman can take out the gunner, you can only shoot at one target at a time and you are very much exposed. What's the point of including a weapon and then cripple it?

Can I make you a proposition? Make both versions and include them. Thats not much more work to do. And then look wich one fits better ingame in some test battles.

In two years of work on Operation Peacekeeper I made the expierience that things like that are better showing ingame ;)
