''"Machine gun emplacement" and "MG emplacement" redirect here.''
wipA '''machine gun emplacement''' (or '''MG emplacement''') is a special type of cover combining sandbags, defensive shields, and a non-removable machine gun. Although the machine gun can be used like any other weapon on your Side of the [[Battlespace]], you cannot take it or equip it. You may, however, take its [[ammunition]] and [[ammo belt|ammo belts]] and reload it with your own. MG emplacements are exclusive to select towns. They can typically be found at specific [[Town Entrance|Town Gates]], providing [[TownSec]] with a powerful means of defense against invasions, whether from monsters, raiders, or otherwise. {| class="wikitable sortable" style="font-size:10pt"|-!

TownSec relies on their personal weapons instead.* Towns with a '''Small''' population use the '''5.56mm MG emplacement.'''* Towns with a '''Medium''' population use the '''5.8mm MG emplacement.'''* Towns with a '''Large''' population use the '''.30 cal MG emplacement.'''* Towns with a '''Very large''' population use the '''.50 cal MG emplacement.'''
