Devblog #53 - Upcoming new weaponry!
As some of you already noticed in the screenshot from the last devblog, one of the weapons youll be getting with this update is the Revolver Orbea Hermanos - Tettoni 1916.
The Revolver Orbea Hermanos - Tettoni 1916 is a Spanish copy of the Smith & Wesson Double Action .44. pistol and was imported by F. Tettoni of Brescia for the Italians, and chambered for the 10.4mm Ordinanza Italiana ( the same round used in the Bodeo revolver). The need for weaponry was high during WW1, especially for handguns. Several Spanish manufacturers filled this need for countries such as France and Italy. Although this model was imported for the Italians, it was never officially adopted into the Italian military at the time. However, many Italian officers used the weapon during their service in WW1, which youll also be able to do in Isonzo.
Source The Orbea Hermanos started their company in the 1880s and was the only company listed in Eibar (Spanish city) as an arms factory. In 1883 they obtained a permit that would be valid for 20 years, where they would make a revolver based on the Smith & Wesson First Model DA. Over the years, they would manufacture multiple variations. Orbea still exists to this day and focuses primarily on manufacturing bicycles, helmets and other cycling related items.
The Gasser M1870, designed and manufactured by Leopold Gasser, was originally adopted by the Austro-Hungarian army for cavalry use. By the outbreak of WW1, this borderline obsolete firearm was pressed into military service once more.
Genuine Gasser-made products are marked 'L. GASSER PATENT WIEN' or 'L. GASSER OTTAKRING PATENT', and often carry the Gasser trademark of a heart pierced by an arrow. Chambered for the hefty 11.3x36mmR, this revolver has an open-frame model, with the barrel unit attached to the frame by a screw beneath the cylinder arbor. The pin was screwed into the barrel unit and fitted into a recess in the stranding breech. From the right side, the cylinder was gate-loaded, and beneath the barrel there was a rod ejector - held in place with a handy thumbscrew.
[url=http://www.deactivated-guns.co.uk/obsolete-calibre-firearms/regimentally-marked-11mm-obsolete-calibre-austrian-gasser-revolver/prod_6607.html]Source Below the cylinder on the right side of the frame was an unique safety bar; it carries pins that pass through holes in the frame to engage the lock mechanism. Slightly retracting the hammer allows one of these pins to move inward, preventing the hammer moving forward again when released. After this, the pistol was safe to carry safely while being loaded. Gasser also made several commercial versions of this weapon, which overall had a better finish. Other variants of the revolver were produced in smaller calibers such as the 9mm Gasser-Kropatschek M1876. The Gasser family of revolvers also included the famous Montenegrin revolvers, ownership was even made mandatory by Nicholas I of Montenegro in 1910, enshrining it in Montenegrin culture at the time.
Finally, theres another gun that will join your arsenal! The Dreyse Model 1907 is a semi-automatic pistol designed by Louis Schmeisser, which he named after Nikolaus von Dreyse, designer of the Dreyse Needle Gun.
For its time, the gun had an interesting feature; when it was ready to fire, the firing pin projected through the back of the breech block. It had a .32 ACP with a 7 round detachable magazine that's interchangeable with the Browning 1900. During WW1, it was mainly used by Austo-Hungarian & German officers. Examples issued to the Imperial German Army will have an acceptance proof above the ejection port on the right as well as the normal Crown N commercial proofs on the left side of the frame and slide near the trigger.
Source After WW1, the pistol continued to see service in military and police roles. It saw action again in WW2, and was mainly used by Wehrmacht troops.
Currently you can find Isonzo and the Deluxe Edition with a 45% discount! The sale runs until the 15th, so be sure to get it before it's too late. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1556790/Isonzo/

World War One expands to the mountains of the Italian Front - beautiful but deadly in equal measure. Inspired by the two year struggle for control of the Isonzo river valley and the Alps during World War One, Isonzo elevates the WW1 Games Series, figuratively and literally.
From the makers of Verdun and Tannenberg …
The new Offensive game mode puts you right in the middle of key historical offensives on the Italian Front. Lead the charge across stunning Italian landscapes as you choose your path to victory - cut paths through barbed wire, flank your enemies by following mountain trails, or man a mortar to blast a way through. Shape a dynamic battlefield by laying sandbags and wire, placing ammo crates, deploying trench periscopes or sniper shields, and more.
Take part in historical offensives from the Sixth Battle of the Isonzo to the Strafexpedition. Reflecting the course of the actual battles, as the attackers advance the fighting will shift through vastly different landscapes within a single offensive: from hillside fortresses to mountain trenches and fierce urban combat on city streets. Everything is recreated based on research and field trips, from sound effects and uniforms down to the houses, vineyards and trenches you’ll be fighting over.
Call in support with a unique historically accurate flare system: flare guns can mark targets for artillery or biplane flybys, or different colored flares can be used to guide your team. Once the big guns have softened up the enemy, finish the job at close quarters with an Arditi dagger or mountaineer’s pickaxe. Man heavy machine guns, mortars and even mountain guns for more direct fire support.
Choose from six classes based on historical combat roles and build your loadout from a selection of weapons, equipment and perks linked to that class, giving flexibility and variety while staying grounded in what real soldiers might have carried. You’ll be operating wire cutters, bandaging yourself and wounded teammates, and blowing the whistle to start an assault. One shot can kill and even lighter injuries can lead to quickly bleeding out.
Being an effective soldier in Isonzo is not just about being a good marksman. Mastering the terrain is also key - the mountain can be a friend or foe. Learn how to navigate well to maintain cover and surprise your enemies or support your allies.
Finally… watch out for the dreaded poison gas. You’ve never experienced WW1 action quite like this!
Isonzo key features include:
More Games in the Authentic WW1 Game Series
Immerse yourself in more WW1 action with our other standalone titles Tannenberg and Verdun. Experience trench warfare on the Western Front in Verdun, or maneuver for control of key sectors in Tannenberg on the Eastern Front. These authentic WW1 shooters let players choose from a range of squads from across the war, as they fight for control of the ever-changing frontlines.

Isonzo key features include:
- Mountain warfare: Assaulting mountain fortifications, battling through ruined towns, and fording rivers are just a few of the challenges you’ll face as you fight your way through numerous enemy positions
- Tactical multiplayer FPS: Choose your role and loadout carefully to survive this high altitude combat - play a sniper to pick off the enemy engineers before they can cut your wire, use rifle grenades to clear enemy machine guns, and much more
- World War One Gameplay: Historical Offensive game mode based on real battles and focused on the unique challenges of Alpine warfare. Fight with 30+ WW1 weapons, poisonous gas attacks, and intense artillery barrages
- Build for victory: Place your own wire, sandbags, trench periscopes, and more! Whether you’re digging in or on the attack, shaping the battlefield to your advantage will be key to victory
- Faces of war: Make every class your own by picking from a variety of historically class-appropriate uniforms, accessories and headgear. As a finishing touch, you can even pick your mustache from several famous period-accurate styles!
- Authentic WW1 atmosphere: Accuracy in everything from maps and weaponry to music and the uniforms – fight for the Kingdom of Italy or the Austro-Hungarian Dual Monarchy
