above is the in game description of both sniper elite v2, and zombie army trilogy, both games uses the same engine so the mechanics are similar, as is the in game description, in sniper elite v2 above statemens are true, however in ZAT they are a bit different, the fire rate is semi automatic, could be faster than other sidearms, but not noticeable in game, although its a German weapon, and the game is set mostly in Germany you might think there is plenty of ammo lying arround but the ammo pickup rate is random, every time you loot a corpse you wil pick up ammo for either your primary weapon, secondary weapon or sidearm, the quantity of rounds you pick up is the same as the magazine size of the weapon you have, so when looting ammo for the Luger you will always pick up 8 rounds, unless it surpasses your total supply which for this weapon is 8/80. another cool mechanic in ZAT is "autoload" (at least its what i call it) when your ammo in reserve is at the maximum but your magazine isn't full, if you pick up ammor for that weapon the magazine automatically gets filled up to its maximum.

### **History**

The Luger P08 is a German semi-automatic pistol. It was designed in 1898 by Georg Luger, The design utilizes the distinctive toggle-lock action, in which a jointed arm is used to lock open the action, it saw widespread adoption by German officers, luftwaffe pilots and tank crews, it was mostly used as a literal personal defence weapon, as pilots and tank crew used either a plane or tank to attack the enemy, and officers were not primairaly in combat, as they were tasked to lead the troops into battle, but if the enemy gets a little too close, the Luger was there to help.

### in game stats

The Luger P08 will kill a zombie with 3 bodyshots, it has a high accuracy, more or less the same as the M1911A1, so headshots which are always a one hit kill are both easy and fast to line up, the reload speed is the same as any other semi auto pistol in the game, at 1,8 seconds regardless of how many rounds are left in the magazine

### Strengths

* **Accuracy:** the thompson has the highest accuracy of all of the secondary weapons, on par with the two german weapons the mp40 and mp44

but with a tad higher damage per shot then said weapons, make for a deadly combination, mainly because of the more powerfull .45 ACP cartridge

* **Damage:** the Powerfull .45 ACP cartridge grants superior stopping power than any other weapon in its class, only the Blyskawica deals more damage. it will kill in 6 shots anywhere to the body and of course, 1 headshot is always sufficient to kill, so thats what you should aim for

### Weaknesses

* **Capacity:** both in the magazine and reserve, the Thomson has the lowest capacity in game, although the mp 44 also has a 30 round mag, its reserve ammo is capped at 160 for the Thomspson it is capped at 150 rounds plus 30 in the mag making for a total capacity of 30/150
