Lee Enfield No.1 Mk III image - Grabenkrieg: The Great War 1914–1918 mod for Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad
Grabenkrieg: The Great War 1914–1918 is a modification for the award-winning game "Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad" set in the rugged battlefields of the First World War. So fix your bayonets and prepare to charge!
Our Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk III, also known as .303 caliber, Rifle, Short, Magazine, Lee-Enfield or simply SMLE. It was the workhorse of the British forces in World War 1 and the counterpart of the german Gewehr 98 in countless battles. Our forum regulars already know that asset a bit because Coin-goD posted a Work in Progress in his art dump on the forums, so if you aren't registered there yet, you should seriously consider it to get an early access on what we are working on. The Mk III* was developed from the Mk III and is a simplified and cheaper version of the latter. Unusal for the time is the detachable magazine with a capacity of 10 bullets though it was mostly loaded with two stripper clips from the top like most of the other ordonance rifles at the time. The SMLE is known for it's fast and easy to use action and trained soldiers could get up to 20 aimed shots per minute out of the rifle.
Excellent work!
Can't wait to shoot this characteristic rifle in-game, it looks really good! It surely gives me that WW1 feel just by looking at it.
Keep ut the good work!
