An
old workhorse for the German army, this close support weapon soldiered on
till the end of the war. Requiring a crew of only three men, the IG 18 was
easy to operate, maintain, and deploy.
You
won't see this gun very often, but when deployed correctly, it can provide
an effective means of cutting off a lane of attack. Keep in mind that once
in place these guns aren't very mobile. Place them in an area that offers
a balance of both firing position and cover. Placement of a rifle or machinegun
team nearby is recommended.
