Lore & Background
The presence of these weapons creates an atmosphere of constant, suffocating tension. Unlike standard military engagements where rules of engagement might exist, here the rules are simple: violation means death. The sound of the rifle cocking or the crack of gunfire serves as a auditory cue that instantly shifts the mood from competition to survival horror. They are the physical manifestation of the Front Man's will, ensuring that the game proceeds without interference.
Reader's Guide
These assault rifles are standard-issue firearms distributed to all guards within the facility. They function as the primary means of eliminating players who break rules or attempt to flee the grounds. The weapons are designed for rapid deployment and high lethality, ensuring that threats are neutralized instantly.
Guards carry them slung across their bodies or held at the ready depending on the level of alertness required by the Front Man's commands. While they appear to be modern tactical rifles, the specific model is secondary to their role as instruments of absolute control. The psychological impact of seeing a guard with this weapon often prevents players from even attempting rebellion.
Only authorized personnel in pink jumpsuits are permitted to wield these weapons. Unauthorized possession by a player results in immediate execution. The guards are trained to use them with mechanical precision, devoid of personal emotion or hesitation.
