LMG : a wasting of money

[jawsconan]

Hi,

I just want to have your opinion about those LMG. From my experience, I can't remember a game where this weapon has been efficient.
It is slow, weak.
Then, it kills nothing. It has a small range and a light fire power (i never saw a LMG's casualty in all my CMAK career).
Recently, i managed to place very quicly two LMG units in a church, made them hidden and entrenched before the enemy even began to walk (thanks halftracks).
When my opponent's soldiers arrived in the village, the LMG shot on them by surprise. After 35 seconds, my both units were dead !!!!!!
So, what else ? if a unit is in the best protection (church), is very well hidden and entrenched, shots on the enemy by surprise and dispite these parameters, dies so quickly, i just claim it :
LMG are sucking units. there are only a wasting of money.
If you have positive experience with these weapons, just tell us.

Cheers.
Hubert
