Specialists will have Snipers, Gas Artillery and two specialist fighters. Line Infantry will have one Rifleman, one Grenadier, and one Machine-Gunner.

* VideoGameFlamethrowersSuck: Played Straight, the flamethrower has a ridiculously short range of about 5 meters outside of which it's completely useless. In addition to this the flamethrower is the only weapon in the game which has a trigger delay, meaning that you can only fire the weapon about half a second after pressing the fire button, the flames completely block your view when you are firing the weapon and even simply firing the flamethrower is a great way of giving away your position to everyone on the map. Simply put flamethrower is an extremely situational weapon and generally it's just better to stick to your carbine or pistol if you are in the unfortunate position of having to play as a Flammenwerfer trooper.

** Gas, if you don't get your mask on quickly. The effects come in stages, faster depending on what gas you're hit by. First your [[InterfaceScrew vision blurs]] to the point you can barely see, with a message on screen warning that [[CaptainObvious you are being blinded]]. Next the screen starts to turn black as your vision fails entirely, the message now saying that you're being asphyxiated. Finally your controls will stop responding, your character will fall to their knees, then flat on the ground, with "You have succumbed to the effects of (whichever) gas" appearing on-screen. Some seconds later you will finally die. If it's xylyl bromide or chlorine gas, you'll have plenty of time to get your mask on. Usually only new players will be killed by these, and usually only once. Phosgene is deadlier, you can afford to take a moment to go prone or get behind cover before pulling your mask on, but not much longer. If you delay even that long, mustard gas will kill you faster than you can put can put your mask on.

If you run out of ammo, [[ThisIsGonnaSuck you're screwed.]] Every rifle bar the Commonwealth's Lee-Enfields holds just five rounds: teams with Anglo-Canadian squads are capable of a noticeably higher volume of rifle fire. Submachine Guns and Heavy Machine Guns, while very powerful, are extremely slow to reload and deplete their magazines and ammo stocks frighteningly fast. Especially if you change your specialization to carry a rifle instead of a pistol & Machine Gun ammunition.

** If you're looking for a more long-ranged option, the French get the RSC 1917, the only semi-automatic rifle in the game. This means that you can get off 2-3 shots in the time it would take to fire off one with the typical bolt-action.

** The M1892 serves as a midway point between the Reichsrevolver and the Webley, doing more damage than the latter while having a faster reload than the former.

Not gun safety and jams aren't in the game
Deleted line(s) 19 (click to see context) :
* ArtisticLicenseGunSafety: Completely averted. All the guns are as realistic as they come, with gun jams, distance and environmental factors playing a role in determining the efficacy of your shot. And if you're not careful, it will end badly for you.
