Lugermorph

“

Who wouldn't want to squeeze off a couple rounds with the murder weapon of choice of a sociopathic cartoon rabbit? Probably quite a lot of people, when you get right down to it. Luckily, those people are all well-adjusted contributors to society with no police records, spotless credit ratings and few unresolvable moral failings. They also probably have no interest in playing TF2, so that means more murder-rabbit gun shooting for the rest of us. — Official Description

”

The Lugermorph is a secondary weapon for the Scout and the Engineer. A promotional item, it represents the sidearm of Max, the hyperkinetic rabbity thing from Sam & Max. The Lugermorph was first given to players who pre-ordered Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse or who bought it up to a week after release. It can also be acquired through bonus rounds in Poker Night at the Inventory.

The weapon is a straight replacement of the standard Pistol, and functions in exactly the same way. As such, the accuracy of the Lugermorph is average, more suited to attacking medium or long range targets that the Scattergun or Shotgun cannot normally hit; however, it suffers from medium damage falloff over distance. The gun is also useful for destroying Sticky bombs or attacking Sentry Guns from outside their firing range.

Previous Changes

• Originally, this gun could only be used by the Scout. In the July 1st, 2010 update, it was made available for use with the Engineer.
• The kill icon for the Lugermorph was originally the same as the Pistol. This was changed to its current kill icon in the July 8, 2010 Patch.

Trivia

• The name "Lugermorph" is a portmanteau of "Template:W", the German sidearm the Lugermorph is based on, and "Template:W", the taxonomic order that Max claims to be part of.
• The weapon's in-game description is a reference to a mystery and running joke in the Sam & Max games: where does Max keep his gun? The answer to which is "None of your damn business." As if to add to the reference, there was originally a problem with the drop system where the weapon would be removed from the backpack when the game was closed, and put back in when the game was active.
• This promotional item is the first to be released on two separate occasions: first as part of the The Devil's Playhouse set, and then by completing a bonus round, specifically defeating Max in a high stakes match, in Poker Night at the Inventory.
