The goblins' heavy machine guns were more advanced technologically, but their size was unsuitable. To produce heavy machine guns that fit the dwarven machine gunners, they would have to be readjusted, and a new production line would have to be set up.
Therefore, this defensive line would still primarily rely on the Hand-Crank Heavy Machine Guns developed and produced earlier, at least for the time being.
In a sense, this was actually a good thing.
The soldiers' performance in actual combat depended heavily on proficiency, which could also be understood as muscle memory.
Heavy machine guns that did not require hand-cranking were indeed faster and more convenient to operate, but the Dwarf machine gunners had spent so long training with Hand-Crank Heavy Machine Guns.
If they were suddenly told to switch to heavy machine guns that did not require hand-cranking, they could not change their operating habits overnight. Especially in a battle like this, using an unfamiliar weapon would have a huge impact.
Rather than hurriedly replacing their weapons with unfamiliar new ones, it would be better to let them fight with their old weapons first.
At the end of the day, if one only compared firearm performance, then even though the goblin heavy machine guns had better overall capabilities, they still would not completely crush the dwarves' Hand-Crank Heavy Machine Guns. The improvement was roughly between ten and fifteen percent.
Of course, this also took into account the difference in strength between the dwarven and goblin machine gunners.
The dwarven machine gunners' powerful control over heavy machine guns was one of their greatest advantages. Working together, they instantly formed a formidable, dense line of fire that swept toward the advancing Boar People.
The Boar People had clearly been mentally prepared for this formation.
