Revision as of 20:07, 6 February 2013
Tropico is a construction and city building game series where the player assumes the role of the leader of a tropical banana republic. Tropico 1 (2001), Tropico 3 (2009), and Tropico 4 (2011) have a modern setting which gives the player the control of small Caribbean island during the Cold War.
The following weapons are featured in the Tropico series:
Flintlock Pistols
There are several flintlock pistols in the menu screen in Tropico 2.
M1911A1
Generals and El Presidente carry M1911A1 pistols in Tropico 3 & 4. Despite being American made handgun they will still be availible even if Tropico is a Communist Country.
Smith & Wesson M&P
Policemen carry Smith & Wesson M&P pistols with a two tone finish in Tropico 3 & 4. Customs officers were introduced in Tropico 4 and carry the same pistol. The Smith & Wesson M&P is anachronistic because it was introduced in 2005 and Tropico starts in 1950 (unless the Modern Times DLC is downloaded) meaning it would not be around until decades after the game is set. Note that the pistol skin is mirrored and is missing the ejection port because of that.
Browning High Power
Female criminals in Tropico 4 carry oversized Browning High Power pistols.
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
Added in the "Modern Times" expansion for Tropico 4, SWAT Team members carry Heckler & Koch MP5A3s.
Muskets
Armed guards carry Muskets in Tropico 2. Pirate ships have to be equipped with Muskets, which are produced locally.
Blunderbuss
There are two Blunderbuss hanging on the wall in the menu screen in Tropico 2.
AK-47
All soldiers and rebels carry AK type rifles in Tropico 1. In Tropico 3 & 4, only the rebels carry AK rifles.
Tropico 1
Tropico 3 & 4
M16A2
Soldiers in Tropico 3 & 4 carry M16A2 rifles. These rifles are anachronistic because the M16A2 was introduced in the 1980s and Tropico starts in 1950 (unless the Modern Times DLC is downloaded) meaning the M16 rifle series would not be around until a decade after the game is set. Despite being American made your military will still equip them even if Tropico is Communist.
KPVT Heavy Machine Gun
The Junta DLC adds military-themed decorations. These include armored fighting vehicles, which appear to be BTR-60s with a standard KPVT Heavy Machine Gun. The BTR-60s will be available even if Tropico is a capitalist country.
M60 Machine Gun
The icon for the military modernization edict features a South Korean K2 Black Panther tank which presumably mounts a coaxial M60 machine gun.
Other
M67 hand grenade
The rebels carry M67 hand grenade. The grenades are labeled with a big "Frag".
