Revision as of 13:43, 26 November 2011
Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines is a single-player real-time tactics video game developed by Pyro Studios and published by Eidos Interactive in 1998. Beyond the Call of Duty is its stand-alone expansion, released a year later by the same developer and publisher. The expansion added new weapons, mission and enemies.
The following weapons can be seen in the game Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines and its expansion Beyond the Call of Duty:
Usable Weapons
Smith & Wesson 4506
The Smith & Wesson 4506 with wooden grips is the pistol of choice of the Commando team. This is the only weapon that can be used by the whole team (the only exception being the Dutch Contact, a character added in the expansion). Three shots can bring down an enemy soldier. Has a short range, comes with unlimited ammunition and fires as fast as one can click the mouse button. Appears as "Gun" in Behind Enemy Lines, and as "Pistol" in Beyond the Call of Duty. The weapon is heavily anachronistic, considering that the game takes place in the second World War, but the S&W 4506 was produced from 1988.
M3 Grease Gun
The Grease Gun appears as "Submachine Gun" in the game. Only the Driver can use it of the Commandos. Has a small range and is always fired in short bursts. Usually 10 or 20 shots can be fired from it before it runs out of anmmo.
Mills Bomb
The Sapper's standard fragmentation grenade is the Mills Bomb.
Duke's Sniper Rifle
Probably a Springfield variant, it is impossible to tell because only the scope can be seen in the inventory menu. Each hit grants instant kill. The remaining bullets are shown in the backpack.
Beretta M1934
The Beretta M1934 wtih wooden grips is the standard handgun of Lips, the Dutch Contact. Has unlimited ammunition. Appears only in the "Dangerous Friendships" mission.
Lee-Enfield Rifle
The Driver's new weapon is a Lee-Enfield rifle. Only part of it can be seen, so it is impossibly to determine the exact variant. Appears as "Rifle", and has limited ammunition.
Not Usable Weapons
Colt M1911A1
A picture of a M1911A1 can be seen after each completed mission.
M1 Garand
M1 Garands are seen during the cutscenes of the game
M1928A1 Thompson
An M1928A1 Thompson are seen during a cutscene.
MP40
MP40s are seen during a cutscene in German hands.
PPSh-41
A PPSh-41 submachine gun can be seen in one of the cutscenes of the game. The same footage was later reused in Commandos 2.
Various Generic Weapons
Unfortunately the weapons the German troops use during the missions are not detailed enough to determine the exact variants. Here is what's certain: German officers are always using a pistol (probably Luger P08 or a Walther variant) in the game. Most of the Wehrmacht guards are armed with rifles, possibly Kar98k's. The Machine Gunner soldier are using what appear to be the MP40. Several emplaced machine guns can also be seen, probably MG42s or MG34s.
