[Frontlines] Mauschenjager
Frontlines is a weapon project inspired by Battlefield 1, essentially seeking to bring a style of arcadey early 1900s weaponry to the workshop. It also serves as a way for me to improve on modeling weapons and, for the first time ever, animating them myself.

This mod contains the Mauschenjager, a simple yet reliable semi-automatic pistol caliber carbine. While this gun uses the same round as the Rother-Halt, the longer barrel allows it to engage at further distances and deal more damage than its machine pistol counterpart. In fact, the long barrel allowing for maximum powder burn allows for the gun to engage further than any SMG thus far, with higher velocity and lower damage falloff. It has a decent 18 round capacity, an insane amount of reserve ammo, and resupply ammo very fast. However, when firing fast, especially when hip firing, you become rapidly less accurate, encouraging a more passive longer-ranged playstyle.
Historical Section: This is based on the Dreyse light carbine in .32 ACP, with a fictional 18 round magazine. In reality this gun seems to have been mostly unsuccessful and remains relatively obscure, but it looked cool, so I made it. In game, the velocity is grossly buffed and unrealistic damage figures are given to make it viable as a mid-ranged semi auto rifle, that shares a lot of traits with the SMGs still.

Thank you for reading this far. Join the server if you want, Frontlines is a project I have been extremely excited to make. More to come, albeit sporadically.
