Background

Main article: Submachine gun

This Thompson M1928 submachine gun is a sinister looking weapon; every time you hold it, you have an urge to put on a fedora hat and crack your knuckles. The Thompson is well-fed by a large 50 round drum magazine. Like the "Grease gun", the Thompson is pretty powerful, but fires nondescript .45 caliber rounds.

Characteristics

Like the M3A1 "grease gun" SMG, the usage of this gun is limited by its rather heavy ammunition. Furthermore, the grease gun has better damage, longer range, and requires 1 less AP to fire. The only real advantage the Tommy gun has over the grease gun is that it carries a larger magazine. Although if Fedoras and suits were available in the game, the Tommy gun would obviously be the superior choice.
