History VideoGame / CallToArms

* BreakOutTheMuseumPiece: Somehow, Lee-Enfield bolt action rifles were common for the insurgent arsenal, before they upgrade to the infamous AK rifles.

** For the Coalition, USA is the powerhouse with the strongest vehicles and tough but few infantry, Germany is balanced with weaker but more versatile vehicles while still having strong infatry. The UAF is the subversive with weaker but more numerous infantry and vehicles only better armored that GRM vehicles that is until they can get their late game tanks.

* BreakOutTheMuseumPiece: Somehow, Lee-Enfield bolt action rifles were common for the UAF insurgent arsenals, before they upgrade to the infamous AK rifles.

** There are some StealthBasedMission as well as missions where you are driving a vehicle VideoGame/WarThunder style for the entirity of the mission.

* TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: Averted with the GRM, while they do resembles the ISIS, they only attack military targets and never perform any terror attacks and most people immediately throw their lot with them [[spoiler:until much later where the new regime becomes just as oppressive as the UAF]].

* UniformityException: Usually it is easy to pick out [[MookCommander squad leaders]] among the troops because most of them are wearing something obvious like a red beret or bandana and to a lesser extent medics and engineers because of the backpack they carry. EliteMooks and insurgents on the other hand looks identical to each other that you can only pick out the squad leader from the unique loadout they carry.

* {{Expy}}: The GRM for [[Videogame/CommandAndConquerGenerals the GLA]], although the GRM did not resort to inhuman tactics such as suicide bomber, human wave attacks, or toxin attacks, which the GLA are infamous of.

* ReportingNames: Zig-zagged, sometimes Russian weapons used their original names (9M113 Konkurs, 9K115 Metis, 9M133 Kornet) but at other times the very same weapons are displayed with their NATO reporting names (AT-5 Spandrel, AT-7 Saxhorn, AT-13 Spriggan).

* WeaponizedCar: Just like the GLA before them, the Technical is the GRM's most common vehicles. They are BoringYetPractical due to their low cost and powerful weapons they carry at the cost of having no armor.

* JerkassHasAPoint: The GRM is completely ruthless in the pursuit of its goals, but many people joined it because they had legitimate grievances against the authoritarian governments that were toppled by the GRM.

* BlackAndGrayMorality: The GRM vs UAF conflict. The GRM is the gray side here. The UAF has no qualms regarding executing innocent unarmed civilians.

''Call to Arms'' is set in the near future, where the United States forces and their allies are engaged in a war in the middle east against the Global Revoiutionary Movement, a faction that started out as a small insurgency and managed to occupy vast portions of the region (alongside with parts of North Africa).

Call to Arms is a RealTimeStrategy game developed by Digitalmindsoft, the same developers behind the VideoGame/MenOfWar series, and shares a lot of game mechanics in common with the aforementioned series, but also brings its own twist to the genre: mainly by allowing players to assume direct control of the units under their command, where the game changes to a third or first person perspective and the player uses similar controls to that of a shooting game.
