For example, the United States rifleman had the semi-automatic M1 Garand - a gun which fairly closely resembles the modern M14 - whilst the Japanese had the bolt-action Type 38, first designed in 1906. Each team had strikingly different arsenals for each player, a decision that was inspired by the historical context of the two sides in the conflict. In the first Rising Storm, we centered on real battles fought between the Japanese and US in World War 2. With Rising Storm 1, the hallmark of our addition to the series was a new approach of asymmetrical design for the two teams. The games are generally known for being hardcore, true to history and with sense of authenticity to the ‘horrors of war’.
