History VideoGame / GirlsFrontline

* MegaCorp: I.O.P. Manufacturing Company, your main supplier of T-Dolls. Other than manufacturing, they also handle T-Doll retirement and issue them to the civilian market. They also own [=16Lab=], the company that develops Etching technology and its derivative applications.

* PostCyberpunk: The lore has shades of this. While civilization is still in shambles from the damage caused by WorldWarIII and [[ThePlague ELID Epidemic]], android technology (among other things) helped society to get back on its feet.
* PoweredArmor: Downplayed. The exoskeletons available to your dolls are unarmored and purely meant to assist movement.

* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: Android technology has advanced so much that they are nearly indistinguishable from regular humans. Your Tactical Dolls, for example, can eat human food, sleep (though this is sometimes referred as "hibernation"), and even bleed.
* RockBeatsLaser: Your T-Dolls, who can be armed with anything from bolt-action rifles to ''19th century revolvers'', will cut through scores of advanced robots and androids.
* RomanceSidequest: Each T-Doll has their own affection meter, which can be increased through various means. Once at 100, you can choose to marry hher. Married T-Dolls have 30% faster repair rate, additional voice lines, and an increased affection meter (from 100 to 150)

* WorldOfActionGirls: Out of all characters in the game, only ''one'' is a man. The vast majority are women with varying degrees of fighting prowess.

* BribingYourWayToVictory: Diamonds, the premium currency, can be used to purchase consumables, resources, and infrastructure. You get a small sum of diamonds from log-in rewards and clearing maps under Golden Star condition [[note]]Eliminate a certain amount of enemies within X turns without having your team downed or repairing T-Dolls in the field[[/note]], but paying for them is obviously much faster.

* {{Stripperiffic}}: Sangvis Ferri humanoid units tend to bare a lot of skin. For the T-Dolls, AS Val wears bikini top (or midriff-baring tank top in the censored version) and a miniskirt.

** FragileSpeedster: {{Handguns}} (HG) typically has high evasion, but low firepower and survivability. They buff adjacent T-Dolls of any type, and often have unique or powerful skills. They also consume the least amount of resources.
** GlassCannon: [[SniperRifle Rifles]] (RF) are slow firing, but deliver powerful shots with high critical chance. They're best kept in the back lines, picking off enemies with precision fire. Rifles decreases the skill cooldown for nearby handguns.

** MightyGlacier: Machine Guns (MG). They can put out incredible amount of firepower and take some beating, but also require reloading once in a while. [=MGs=] increase the stats of [=SGs=] in the front rows. They are also massive resource hogs.
** StoneWall: Both Submachineguns (SMG) and Shotguns (SG) fill this role, though in different ways. [=SMGs=] rely on their high base health and evasion, while [=SGs=] use their thick armor to shrug off incoming damage. They synergize well with [=ARs=] and [=MGs=], respectively.

* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: Generic Sangvis Ferri units are grey, white, and purple. Bosses and white and black. Armored units are tan with some colored accents.

* DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist: Other than long repair time and losing a chunk of affection, there are no real penalties to downed T-Dolls.

* DiscOneNuke:
** It is possible for new players to build 4 Stars or even 5 Stars T-Dolls right from the beginning if they have the T-Doll crafting contracts, luck and materials to build them.
** Sten Mk.II, being a 3 Stars T-Dolls available right at Chapter 1, serves as one for new players. Not only she is incredibly easy to raise, if you use Replacement Core during the Dummy Link tutorial instead of feeding the free Sten given, you can keep the free Sten and put her into another squad you have, providing you enough firepowers to carry on until the end of chapter 2. However, as soon as you manage to build enough 4 Stars T-Dolls or above to form a squad of them, the Stens will become virtually useless.

* PrivateMilitaryContractors: Griffon & Kryuger Security Firm, the player's faction, is the second biggest PMC in the world. Sangvis Ferri used to be the largest, until their central AI [[RiseOfTheMachines pulled the rug right from under their human staff]] and waged war against humanity itself.

* {{Stripperiffic}}: Sangvis Ferri humanoid units tend to bare a lot of skin.

* ArtisticLicenseMilitary: [=G36C=] is ''categorized as an SMG''. It was in fact originally in the AR category, but was later moved to the SMG category purely for balancing reasons, with a weak HandWave from the developers to justify it being in the SMG category.

* BulletproofVest: One of the type of craftable equipment. They increase armor and only equippable by shotguns.

* PrivateMilitaryContractors: Griffon & Kryuger Security Firm, the player's faction, is the second biggest PMC in the world. Sangvis Ferri used to be the largest, until their central AI hijacked control from the human staff and waged war against humanity itself.

* MoeAnthropomorphism: PlayedWith: The game is noted to have used some InsistentTerminology in Chinese adverts to not imply it as a game about anthropomorphized weapons, but somewhere along the lines of "just" GirlsWithGuns. Despite this, design elements are still mixed with moe anthropomorphism aspects. All T-Dolls under your command are personification of various firearms. Justified, as historical and combat data of a weapon are used to determine the ideal physical shape, personality, and even mannerisms to best wield their specified weapon.

** JackOfAllStats: Assault Rifles (AR) has balanced stats all around, though they are still excellent damage dealers. Assault Rifles strengthens [=SMGs=] in front of them, except for [=M4A1=] who buffs other [=ARs=] instead.

* BottomlessMagazines: With the exception of [=MGs=], no T-Doll need to reload during battle.

* ClothingDamage: Sufficiently damaged T-Doll will get their clothes shredded. At this point they will automatically retreat from the battle, but if a T-Doll enters a fight during this state, they are at risk of being downed.

* PrivateMilitaryContractors: Grifin & Kruger Security Firm, the player's faction, is the second biggest PMC in the world. Sangvis Ferri used to be the largest, until their central AI hijacked control from the human staff and waged war against humanity itself.

* BFG: Some T-Dolls carry positively ''massive'' guns. Both NTW-20 and IWS-2000 are ''shorter'' than their own weapons, while machine guns like [=M2HB=] and M1919 dwarf even battle rifles with their sheer size.

* WorldOfActionGirls: All T-Dolls you encounter are female, including enemy grunts.
