Default Re: Machine Gun Indirect fires?

An hour long MG barrage would be quite boring to play. And the ammo consumption would be huge, at an average 200 rpm (which is not close to the maximum RoF) it would be 12000 rounds per gun.

That said, it surely would not be nice to be on the receiving end. While a man lying flat takes pretty small area (probably somewhere around 0.6 square meters or so), with enough rounds fired you tend to run a chance of hitting somebody eventually.
