Great War
The Great War of 1914-18 was global in its reach. Yet this global conflict would be decided by the mighty clashes upon the battlefields of Europe.

Advancements in weapons technology mean that the infantry now have more weapons at their deposal than ever before. These include the trusty Gewehr 98, the mobile MG08/15 light machine and the latest evolution in firepower, the submachine gun.
Capable of firing up to 500 rounds a minute, in the right hands this weapon can be devastating. Literally sweep a trench clear of the enemy and paving the way to victory via superior firepower and tactics.
