I was hoping I could ask the resident firearms expert about 7.92x57 Mauser. I decided to go ahead and implement it in my Fallout 2 mod so that I can overwrite the G11, the G11E, and the Vindicator Minigun with a Mauser K98k, FG42, and MG42 respectively. I need to be able to stat 7.92x57 Mauser.
Just looking at its dimensions it would seem that 7.92x57 is a pretty powerful cartridge. I know that Hitler, as a World War I vet, believed in giant powerful cartridges so presumably that would have affected German armaments in World War II in that direction. If you had to compare .30-.06 to 7.92x57, how would you do so in terms of bodily trauma potential and effectiveness versus armor? If you give me your take on this I can stat 7.92x57 in my mod against my already existing stats for .30-.06. Thanks a lot for your help. :) |
