Hey mates

I saw the Mkb 42 and thought what the allies will get to hold with that weapon

an AVT 40 ? 10 shot automatic ?

wouldn't be a PpsH 42 more fair ?

If you mean the PPS-42, then that's not really a comparable weapon, as it's still just a SMG (with an effective range of 100-150m). The Mkb will have a higher effective range and more stopping power than a SMG, so it seems more unfair to give the Russians a SMG as an equivalent.

Well, PPS-42 could not have been in Stalingrad, since the first prototypes of PPS-42 were manufactured in sieged Leningrad in late 1942. So it

This post should be locked it just will reignite The whole Mkb-42 was never at Stalingrad talk. And of course it was not but what has been done is not going to be changed :(

I assume there is not enough people who care so much about historical accuracy to motivate the mkb42 to not be in the game.

Persuit of big portion of realism is good but dangerous, persuit of big portion historical accuracy is good but even more dangerous.

My guess is the axis will get the MKB, G41 with 25 round mag, and MP41, the Russians will get the AVT, PPS, and PPD.

I don't know why Tripwire won't show us the supposed picture of the MKB42 in stalingrad, its not like the bloke who took the picture will be bothered any more.

thats right. I have read that as well. And I dont think that is any problem actually. As long the weapon is keept more as a rarity then commodity then I dont see much issues with it. I am actualy more interested in how the weapon behaves because I doubt it will be as reliable like a fully developed Stgw44.

G41 just got 10 rounds, there are two 7.92*57mm mags from the Kar98 are necessary to load it!
