Zentmeister

Karl Wagner is a disgruntled middle-aged instructor at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College. He finds himself concerned about the direction which the German nation is headed in—just as he is killed by a terrorist attack. Only to awaken and find himself reborn as an infant, Bruno von Zehntner, the youngest son of a noble family renowned for its part in the German war industry a few years after the founding of the German Empire. Bruno, as he is now known, desires to rewrite history and ensure the German Empire emerges victorious in the coming century. And in doing so, finds himself entrenched in a world filled with Blood and Iron!

Re: Blood and Iron

Shells were loaded into the back of a 15cm gun, as the crew fired the weapon, before ejecting the spent cartridge only to begin the process again. The heavy artillery was dug in behind concrete reinforced trenches at the rear echelons of the battlefield.

All the while the Austro-Hungarian army tried its darndest to push through the Italian defenses. Throwing bodies at the problem until it solved itself. If there was one upside to the fact that the Austro-Hungarians had aligned themselves with the Germans and Russians, it was the fact that they had all decided to standardize weapons and munitions midway through the war.

Because of this, every Austro-Hungarian rifleman was equipped with a selective fire battle rifle, which was largely based upon the Fedorov Avtomat of Bruno's paste life. The differences being it was chambered in the German 7.92x57mm Mauser cartridge and utilized MG-13 style magazines.
