The Luger is a pistol used by the Imperial German Army and the Wehrmacht. It has great accuracy and ergonomics, but is costly to make. Because of its high cost, the Luger was officially replaced by the Walther P38 around 1940, but it never completely disappeared from service until after World War II.

Strategy

Single Player

In SP, the Luger appears with you when you start the game. It has extremely good accuracy when fired still, and uses the common 9mm round, causing 6 hit points of damage per shot. In fact, it can easily take down common Nazi guards if you stay still and find some good cover. You can even take out Black Guards with it if you have enough cover and/or distance between you and them. Headshots to enemies with helmets do double damage (12) and knocks off the helmet. Otherwise, it is an instant kill (200 hit points of damage).

The Luger is ineffective against non-human enemies or human enemies at long range.

Later on, you can find a silencer for the Luger, which makes it so that enemies won't be alerted to your presence even if you miss. This makes it much easier to sneak around levels.

Multiplayer

The Luger is the Axis' primary sidearm.
