The Static M2HB is a M2HB-QCB (Heavy Barrel, Quick-Change Barrel) machine gun mounted on a tripod and found exclusively on .50 cal MG emplacements. Although it is not based on an existing firearm and acts like a completely new weapon, the Static M2HB does not count as a separate weapon. It is an element of the .50 cal MG emplacement, a type of cover.
Tripod mount
The tripod mount provides all of the following effects:
- Static weapon: It cannot be equipped or added to the inventory.
- FT -1
- Recoil -2
- IS tier +2
Notes
Despite lacking a stock in the traditional sense, the M2HB is intended for use in a sitting or cross-legged position, with both hands on the spade grips and a sufficiently lowered position to use the sights. This posture, alongside the weapon's natural heft, is considered stable enough to have the same effects as a fixed stock. Therefore, it does not suffer from the accuracy malus typically associated with stockless firearms.
