THE BRIEFING

What kind of game is Gallipoli?

Gallipoli is a historical World War I first-person shooter built around 50-player battles. The important distinction is that the match is not a free-for-all: one side attacks, the other side defends, and both teams are organized around objectives and squad roles.

The setting is broader than the peninsula alone. The current game description moves between the Gallipoli landings, Mesopotamian desert routes and urban positions, so a good player will need to change pace with the terrain.

The first questions to ask

Before choosing a class, identify the current objective, the safe route into it and the squad that can support your move. The game rewards players who create a foothold and keep it alive, not only players who collect eliminations.

  • Where is the next objective?
  • Which squad is already moving toward it?
  • Do you need pressure, cover, information or recovery?
  • What piece of terrain can protect the next few metres?

What this wiki can and cannot answer yet

The current material is strong enough to explain the structure of the game, its historical roles and its broad combat rhythm. It is not yet enough to publish a final control guide, complete map callouts or a verified weapon-by-weapon tier list.

Those details should become separate, updateable pages once the live build gives players repeatable matches and a stable roster.
