D.A.K. German HMG Squad

D.A.K. German HMG Squad

Hold the line with devastating firepower using the Brickskrieg D.A.K. German Heavy Machine Gun (HMG) Squad. This detailed brick-built unit represents the Afrika Korps machine gun teams that provided essential sustained fire support across the North African campaign, anchoring defensive positions and suppressing enemy advances in open desert warfare.

Typically armed with the MG34 or MG42, German HMG teams were a cornerstone of infantry tactics, delivering high volumes of accurate fire that could dominate wide arcs of the battlefield. In the desert theatre, where cover was scarce, these squads played a crucial role in halting enemy infantry assaults, protecting anti-tank guns, and supporting armoured counterattacks.

On the tabletop, the Brickskrieg D.A.K. HMG Squad excels as a defensive support unit. Its sustained fire capability allows it to suppress enemy infantry, control key approach routes, and provide covering fire for advancing forces. While relatively static once deployed, its battlefield influence is significant, making positioning and coordination vital to maximising its effectiveness.

Featuring authentic desert uniforms, detailed HMG emplacement, and full compatibility with the wider Brickskrieg range, this unit brings both historical character and tactical weight to any Afrika Korps force. Whether dug in around objectives or supporting a wider defensive line, the HMG squad is a powerful tool in any commander’s arsenal.
