VERDUN BATTLE FREE
In Rifle Deathmatch, players fight in a free for all battle, armed only with one of the rifles they can choose from when joining the game. Squad Defense game modes is a single player bot game mode where players fight off endless waves of attacks by AI controlled soldiers in a 4-man squad. The goal of the game is to diminish the opposing side’s tickets before losing all the tickets on your side, because a player cannot respawn if there are no more tickets. Every time a player is killed and respawns, a ticket is deducted from the side he belongs to. These represent the amount of manpower that each side has at its disposal. Each team, the Entente and the Central Powers, start with a number of tickets. This is a variant of a team deathmatch battle. They can use these to unlock classes, weapons and equipment.

Players can also earn individual experience called Career Points. As a squad gains more experience, they will also visually change, getting more advanced uniforms. Experience is divided among the squad-members, rewarding those that stick together with the same players. As a squad earns more experience, perks, equipment, uniforms and even classes become available to the squad members. Each class has a different role within a squad, and each squad has in turn their own specific tactic. Players in a squad can then choose one of the available classes that is determined by the type of squad he joined. Each squad has a set of abilities and perks based on its type (Line Infantry, Light Infantry or Assault Infantry).

There are up to 12 squad types that the players can choose from, all based on historically accurate units such as the German Stosstruppen, the British Tommies or the French Poilus. In such a battle each player, from either the Central Powers or Entente side, is part of a 4-man squad. The battles fought over these sectors are fought in a FPS battle. The goal is to capture the enemy‘s HQ sector in order to win the game. Staying true to the typical attrition warfare of that time, both sides attack and counter-attack each other in turn, so you will be forced to defend each captured sector of trenches. Each side fights over a turn-based frontline map that consists of multiple sectors that can be captured by either side. In the Frontlines game mode, players can choose to join one of the 2 historic sides of the First World War, the Central Powers and the Entente. There are 4 game modes in Verdun, the Frontlines, Attrition Warfare, Squad Defense and the Rifle Deathmatch game modes. Verdun is a squad based game set in the trenches of the First World War that can be played with up to 32 players.
