'''''Isonzo''''' is the third entry of the [[WWI Game Series]], which is named after the loss-ridden twelve Battles of the Isonzo River in the Julian Alps, which took place between 1915 and 1918. A good 500,000 people lost their lives in the process.

Another new feature is the offensive mode, in which one attacking and one defending faction face each other in massive battles. Large-scale battles between infantry take place in several phases and extend over successive maps. Enemy objectives must be captured, key points blown up, or an advance prevented on the other side. Mid-range firefights and close combat with bayonets dominate the battlefield. Teams are broken up into small squads that serve as quick spawn points for each other. A class system divides players into specific combat roles. These not only differ in their equipment but also each has unique abilities. For example, the sniper uses scopes, the officer calls in air support, the climber can run especially fast, and the engineer sets up mortars, machine guns, and barricades.

Genre: First-Person Shooter


Isonzo is the third entry of the WWI Game Series, which is named after the loss-ridden twelve Battles of the Isonzo River in the Julian Alps, which took place between 1915 and 1918. A good 500,000 people lost their lives in the process.

The principal game mode is Offensive mode, in which one attacking and one defending faction face each other in massive battles. Large-scale battles between infantry take place in several phases and extend over successive maps. Enemy objectives must be captured, key points blown up, or an advance prevented on the other side. Mid-range firefights and close combat with bayonets dominate the battlefield. Teams are broken up into small squads that serve as quick spawn points for each other.


The following weapons appear in the video game Isonzo:


Overview

A class system divides players into specific combat roles. These not only differ in their equipment but also each has unique abilities. For example, the sniper uses scopes, the officer calls in air support, the climber can run especially fast, and the engineer sets up mortars, machine guns, and barricades.

Weapons, equipment, and passive perks can be unlocked by gaining experience points with different classes. Some weapons may be shared between classes, while others may be exclusive to certain classes.

Pistols

Beretta M1915

The first iteration of the Beretta pistols, the Beretta M1915 is available for the Italian Officer, Engineer, Assault, and Marksman as the "Beretta Modello 1915". The Austro-Hungarian Officer can also use the M1915 as their last unlock, representing a captured weapon.

Steyr M1912

The Steyr M1912 is available for the Austro-Hungarian officer, assault, and marksmen classes as the "Steyr M1912 'Steyr-Hahn'". A captured version is available to Italian officers. Unlike the Roth-Steyr, the Steyr-Hahn is capable of being reloaded mid-magazine, albeit at a significantly reduced rate.

Revolvers

Bodeo M1889

The default sidearm of the Italians is the Bodeo Model 1889. It is available to the Officer and Marksman.

Submachine Guns

Villar Perosa M1915

The Villar Perosa M1915 appears as a weapon for the Italian side, available exclusively to Assault as the "Villar Perosa 9mm Mo. 15". It is the only man-portable fully automatic usable by the Italians. It can be fired from both barrels when mounted on its bipod, or hipfired from a single barrel. The reload animation for the Villar Perosa is incorrect; the player does not press the magazine release catches, instead just yanking the magazines out of the feeds, and the cocking pawls both retract together instead of individually.

Villar Perosa M1915 (in infantry configuration) - 9x19mm Glisenti
An Italian soldier holds his "Villar Perosa 9 mm Mo.15".
Aiming. Note that the rear sight peephole is not used.

Removing the right magazine which still contains some 9x19mm rounds. The player does not push the magazine release catch and simply yanks the magazine out of the feed; this is not possible in reality.
Loading a new magazine.
Cocking the Villar Perosa. The player only pulls back the right cocking pawl, but the left one automatically retracts with it, cocking both bolts. In reality, both pawls had to be retracted individually.
An official render of the Villar Perosa M1915.

Rifles

Carcano M1891

The Carcano M91 is the standard rifle for the Italians. It is the default rifle of the Italian Rifleman, Marksman, and Engineer and can be unlocked for use by the Officer and Mountaineer. The Rifleman can make use of a Benaglia rifle grenade while the Marksman has access to a telescopic scope for their Carcano. The Austro-Hungarian Rifleman and Marksman can use captured Carcanos as their final unlocks. It if referred to as "Fucile da Fanteria Mo. 1891 'Carcano'".

Fucile Modello 1891 - 6.5x52mm
An Italian Rifleman holds his standard-issue Carcano long rifle.
Aiming reveals small sights that may be a bit of hindrance in the long sightlines of the Alps and Dolomites.
Reloading after expending all six rounds- all Carcano variants cannot be reloaded until the magazine is emptied. The soldier loads a new en bloc clip...
...and then pushes the bolt closed.

M91 Carbine

The Carcano M91 Carbine appears as "Moschetto da Cavalleria Mo. 91". It is used exclusively by the Italian Mountaineer, with the Austro-Hungarian Mountaineer able to unlock it as well.

M91 TS

The Carcano M91 TS carbine is also available for the Italian Engineer and Assault. Their Austro-Hungarian counterparts can also unlock the rifle. It is referred to as the "Moschetto per Truppe Speciali Mo. 91".

Gewehr 1888/05

The Gewehr 1888/05 first appeared in the launch week as the "Mannlicher M.13", but was then renamed "Repetiergewehr M.13", which was the official designation for the rifle in the Austro-Hungarian Army. It is available exclusively to the Austro-Hungarian Rifleman and the second unlockable rifle which can be loaded with individual cartridges. The model in the game has Steyr markings, which means that the rifle was made in Austria chambered in 8×57mm I (I for Infanterie) for Germany, and converted there to the 8×57mm IS (7.92×57mm; IS for Infanterie Spitz) spitzer cartridge after 1905, only to be returned due to rifle shortages in the K. u k. Armee. Another detail are the modified sling swivels; these were changed to the Austrian M.95.

Seitengewehr (SG) 98/05
Running with the Gewehr offers a good view of the Seitengewehr 98/05 bayonet and the receiver which is labeled with "OE WG Steyr 1897". This configuration is also present in Tannenberg, since the G88 did not have a standard bayonet. Nevertheless, many G88s in Austrian service were also fitted with the Säbelbajonett M1873 with modified grips from Werndl rifles rather than the German-supplied SG 71.

Karabiner 1888

The original M/88 carbine variant of the Gewehr 1888 returns from previous iterations, referred to as the Karabiner 1888 in the Caporetto expansion.

Mannlicher-Schönauer Y1903/14

The export-oriented Mannlicher-Schönauer Y1903/14 is available exclusively to the Austro-Hungarian marksman under the name "Mannlicher-Schönauer M.03/14" and is the first selectable rifle with the capability of reloading loose rounds. The Kingdom of Greece awarded Steyr a production contract for these rifles in 1914, which was cancelled by the onset of war. After 1903, this was Steyr's second major delivery to the Greek Army, which was inadequately equipped after the Balkan Wars of 1912/13. Designated the "Infanteriegewehr Modell 1903/14" in service, they were for the most part issued to the Polish Legions within the k. u. k. Armee, but demonstrably also occasionally ended up to second-line troops.

Steyr Mannlicher M1895

The Steyr Mannlicher M1895 is the standard rifle for the Austro-Hungarians. It is usable by the Officer, Rifleman, Engineer, and Marksman. The Rifleman can unlock a rifle grenade for use and the Marksman has access to a scoped variant, and the Italian Riflemen and Marksman have access to captured rifles.

Vetterli-Vitali M1870/87

The Swiss-Italian Vetterli-Vitali M1870/87 is available exclusively to the Italian Rifleman and the only rifle on the Italian side that can be reloaded with loose cartridges. This Vetterli Rifle has the highest rate of fire of any Italian rifle in the game at 43 RPM but is otherwise inferior in stopping power, reloading speed, and sighting speed.

Machine Guns

Fiat-Revelli M14

The Fiat-Revelli M1914 with ribbed water barrel is the standard heavy machine gun at Italian positions. It is the only machine gun in the game that must be shot empty in order to be reloaded. Caproni bombers could be armed with the aircraft version.

Schwarzlose Model 07/12

The Schwarzlose Machine Gun Model 07/12 returns as the heavy machine gun for the Austro-Hungarians. It is incorrectly modeled after a Romanian post-war version with an extended barrel and cooling jacket, recycling the model from Tannenberg.

Flare Guns

Useful for spotting enemies and providing firing support, flare guns could also be shot at enemies to kill them; doing so for the first time would unlock an achievement.

Hebel Model 1894

The Hebel Model 1894 is a piece of equipment available to the Austro-Hungarian Mountaineer and Officer classes as the "Leuchtpistole Model 1894 'Hebel M1894'". Firing it reveals enemies on an area of the map, useful for homing in mortars or fire support.
