TNGF
SELECTED
Italian Lieutenant
primary
A young man in his mid-20s with a lean but athletic build, his face smudged with dirt and sweat from the battle. His dark brown eyes are wide with urgency, and his short black hair is tousled under his officer's cap. A fresh scar runs along his left cheekbone, a recent souvenir from the fighting.
Italian Sergeant
secondary
A rugged, middle-aged man with a weathered face, deep-set eyes, and a thick mustache. His build is stocky and muscular, bearing the marks of years of military service. His hands are calloused, and his posture is slightly hunched from carrying heavy equipment.
Austro-Hungarian Officer
secondary
A tall, lean man in his early 30s with sharp features and a neatly trimmed mustache. His piercing blue eyes scan the battlefield with calculated precision, and his posture exudes authority. His uniform is slightly worn but well-maintained, a testament to his disciplined nature.
Italian Rifleman
background
A young Italian conscript, barely out of his teens, with a gaunt face and wide, terrified eyes. His unkempt dark hair sticks out from under his helmet, and his hands tremble as he grips his rifle. His uniform is dirty and torn, showing signs of prolonged trench life.
Austro-Hungarian Stormtrooper
background
A battle-hardened Austro-Hungarian assault soldier in his late 20s, with a wiry but muscular build from years of mountain warfare. His face is partially obscured by a cloth mask against the cold, revealing only intense blue eyes squinting against the snow glare. His uniform is caked with mud and frost, and he moves with the practiced agility of a veteran stormtrooper.
Dialog
Italian Lieutenant
Third platoon—hold that flank! By God, if they break through there, we're finished!
Italian Sergeant
Tenente, we can't hold here—fall back to the secondary trench before their stormtroopers flank us!
Austro-Hungarian Officer
Sturmtruppen—vorwärts! Keep pushing left where their line thins. Schnell!
Italian Lieutenant
Mario, get the machine gun crew up—we'll cover the retreat. Saints preserve us...
Italian Sergeant
Diavolo! Their artillery's zeroing in—every man for the rear trench NOW!
Austro-Hungarian Officer
Artillerie—Feuerpause! Let their retreat become a rout.
Italian Sergeant
Tenente, if we don't move, we die here like dogs in the snow!
