When was the first machine gun invented?
-answer- the first machine gun was invented during world war 1 (WW1). -feedback- my problem with this answer. is that it does not say the name of the gun more specifically nor does it say the nationstate that got this technology first, where as the first rapid fire turrent was in the year 1862 and it was the Americans. it was called gatling gun. also one of the first guns for personnel to carry was something like a tommy gun in the 1930s and 1940s. i need to know this for a game im working on called Call to power II :World at war mod. if this is true i could use civilian machine gunners much more sooner.
Did the King Tiger or Tiger 1 tank score more hits?
The Panzerkampwagen VIa (Tiger 1) scored more hits because more of them were built and were in production earlier.Addition by Fantacmet.Production of the Tiger I, ran from August 1942 until August 1944. During that time 1376 Tigers were ordered and 1350 were delivered. The highest monthly output was April of 1944 at 104 Tanks produced that month. This number does not include variations such as the SturmTiger which used the same chassis but with a 380MM Rocket launcher instead of the 88mm Gun. This number also does not include tha JagdTiger which was armed with a 128mm Gun.As for the Tiger II, there were only 489 of these built. Now I cannot confirm but I believe this number ONLY applies to the Tiger II's with the Henschel turret. There were earlier examples of these with Porche turrests because the Henchels were not yet available or some other political reason. There were less then 100 Porche turrent Tiger II's completed if memory serves correctly. Considering the number of Panzer Aces commanding Panzer VI's as opposed to the number commanding Panzer VI II's(Tiger and Tiger II respectively), I would say the afformentioned answer is going to be highly likely. The Panzer Aces commanding Tiger I's had an incredable kill ratio. Especially the infamous Michael Whittman.Information gleaned from "The Tiger I & Tiger II Profile by Schiffer Military History."ANSWER:In Agreement with the above it also has to be pointed out that the Tiger I also was involved in more Major battles than the King Tiger. Kill rate per tank was also higher with the Tiger I
Why was it called the Gustav line?
Answer"Gustav" was a common German name and does not refer to any specific person. For example, the G Model of the Messerschmidt Bf-109 was called the "Gustav"; the E Model was the "Emil".The defense lines were given names that were typical German. The GUSTAV Line was the main defense line for the approach to Cassino. It crossed the peninsula at its narrowest and most mountainous region. It ran along the mountains on the right bank of the Minturno-Garigliano-Rapido Rivers, the Aurunci Mountains, Mount Cairo, Le Mainarde and along the Sangro river to the outlet at the Adriatic Sea.This defense line had a couple of "branches" or fall-back positions with their own names: DORA Line and HITLER Line.There were many defensive lines established in Italy. Some were simple natural barriers such as rivers that were defended by machine guns and others were elaborate defensive strutures that took months to build. Here is a list of the defense lines in Italy----name from SOUTH to NORTH as the Allies would have contacted them during their advance:'O' Line - crossed Italy starting at SalernoViktor LineBarabara LineAdvanced Sangro LineBernhardt Line that included Gustav, Dora and Hitler LinesForo LineCaesar LineDora LineLine EAlbert Line & Anton LineOlga & Lydia & Paula Lines -- short defensive positions south of Arno.Heinrich Line & Georg Line (Allies called the Arno Line)Green I Line -- aka GOTHIC LineGreen II LineDefensive Positions on Adriatic Coast,These were along natural river positions and were succeeding fall-back positions.Rimini LineErika LineGudrun LineAugsberger LineIrmgard LineGenghis Khan LineVenetian Lineand a couple of more un-named positions.The Po River acted as a defensive position as it was a wide river and most of the bridges were destroyed. This book does not list it as a defensive position.Defensive Positions in SicilyHauptkampflinieEtna Line - at Mount Etna volcanoNew Hube LineWhen the Allies began attacking the HITLER Line, Hitler ordered that the name be changed. He didn't want the negative publicity that his defensive position was captured. I thought it was renamed the Green Line and the Green I Line, above, was actually known as the GOTHIC Line.If you are interested in learning more of these defensive positions, the small Osprey booklet describes these in detail. It describes the weapons used in these positions form the buried tank turrent, the 88-cannon, the Nebel-werfer, and the MG Panzernest. The Panzernest was a small 2-man concrete machine gun bunker that was rolled into position on wheels and flipped over into a pit and buried.Source: Osprey booklet "German Defences in Italy in WW2"by Neil Short.
How many different types of tanks were used during World War 2?
Naturally, it depends on what is mean by "types" of tanks.If the question is referring to different models of tanks (similar to different models of cars, e.g. a Chevy Impala, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Camry, etc.), then, excluding specialty modifications (such as the amphibious modifications to certain M4 Shermans):The British fielded about 24 different tank models, excluding those made by the USA. However, the vast bulk of the British tank force consisted of about 4 models.The USA fielded about 7 different tank models, plus another 5 different tank destroyer models, which, from a design standpoint, should really be classified as tanks (unlike other countries' tank destroyers, which really were self-propelled artillery or assault guns). Once again, only about 4 models made up the bulk of production, with the M4 Sherman making up over 75% of all tanks produced.The USSR fielded about 18 different tank models, with the T-34 making up the majority of their tank production.The French had 10 different tank models, but saw virtually no action after the Fall of France in 1940.The Italians fielded about 8 models, but none in large quantities.The Japanese fielded about 15 tank models, plus another 4 different types of custom-design amphibious tanks. None were fielded in significant quantities.Germany fielded 7 different models of tanks, plus over 20 models of tank destroyers, assault guns, and self-propelled artillery, though all of the latter lacked a turrent and should not really be classified as tanks in any way.Most countries in WW2 began the war with a large variety of tank models designed in the 20s and 30s, virtually all of which were obsolete. In practically all cases, no more than 5 or 6 new models (from each country) were designed during the war, and the vast majority of tank production for the entire war centered around no more than 6 different models across all countries.If the question is asking about the category of tank design (i.e. purpose/mission that the tank was designed to fulfill), then WW2 produced a myriad of different tank missions:For the Allied powers, pre-war tank doctrine dictated three major categories of tanks:Infantry-support: these were slower tanks, with heavy armor and powerful guns, intended to work in close-contact with infantry formations. In the British and French doctrine, these tanks (working in conjunction with special anti-armor artillery pieces) were intended to be the main anti-tank weapons. That is, enemy tanks were to be engaged by the Infantry-Support tank (as counterintuitive as that sounds)"Cruiser" tanks, which included most Light and Medium tanks, where speed was th primary factor, with light armor and medium-caliber guns. These tanks were intended to be the "breakout" tanks, which would charge through openings that the infantry and infantry tanks would punch in enemy lines. As such, they were NOT primarily intended to be used against other tanks.The tank destroyer, which was a particularly American ideology. These were medium tanks, build for very high speed and armed with a powerful gun, but with very little armor protection. Under American doctrine, the tank destroyer was the weapon to be used against enemy tanks, usually in a defensive roll.In addition, the Allied forces produced a wide variety of add-ons and special mission conversions, numbering into the several dozen, including things such as amphibious kits, flamethrowers, mine-clearing, bridge-building, bulldozer, crane, and even rocket-launcher modifications.As the war progressed, the Soviets were the first to discard this pre-war division, and focus on a more balanced design, combining mobility, good armor protection, and a powerful anti-tank gun. The outstanding medium T-34 and the solid heavy IS tanks were the result. The British eventually came around to this philosophy at the end of the war, producing the medium Cromwell and Comet which were good all-round designs. The Americans never did, however, instead pressing the M4 Sherman (a medium cruiser tank) into the utility roll, one which it was generally ill-suited for. Due to being knocked out early in the war, French tank designs never evolved.German tank doctrine was different, generally delegating the infantry-support roll to the assault gun design, and assuming that tanks would be both mobile, and powerful enough to fight other tanks. While starting out with the generally weak Panzer I, II, and III models, the good Panzer IV was followed by the Tiger heavy tank, then the stellar Panther, followed by several increasingly ludicrous super-heavy designs (of which only the Tiger II saw any real action). Partially due to a change in war fortunes, German tank designs focused on producing increasingly powerful designs, intended to be able to beat any opponent in a 1-on-1 fight.For both German and Allied designs, the light tank effectively disappeared after about 1942, as it was found extremely deficient in terms of protection (being vulnerable to even infantry-carried weapons) and not presenting enough firepower to be useful.Frankly, neither the Italian nor Japanese tank forces developed effective tank doctrines, and neither really made much effort to develop new tank designs (or, for that matter, even manufacture many tanks).

How do you turn on the power in Zombie mode in Black Ops?
Firstly open the door at the top of the stairs on the right hand side cost 750, then open the next door heading right 1000, then you'll head down stairs into a room with 2 flights of stairs going down and a turrent in the middle. directly opposite the turrent is the next door 1250 then run forward to the end then left and there will be one more door for 1250. Once you open that door, you'll come out into a big open room (the theatre) - run to the opposite side of it and there is a light and a big arrow pointing to the wall where the power button is. Once you turn on the power obviously you can get the energy boosts and turn on the turrents.
