[p]The Ascent game mode is a free event available to everyone who owns Isonzo. The goal is control of the capture point at the summit of Marmolada. The Italians are on the offense and elected to go to shortest route: straight up the cliff. With ice picks and rope in hand, they'll have to climb their way towards the capture point. As they do, the rope they placed will form a quick way up for those who come after.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/40153298/958d73e155b2c1956b82017eb5e84226fe6e1289.png"][/img][/p][p]The Austro-Hungarians are on the defense and aren't planning to let the Italians waltz up their mountain. To make sure the Italians don't reach the summit, they're armed with their trusty rifles to send the Italians back to the bottom. However, supplies are scarce up there and ammunition is hard to come by, so they only have one clip per soldier.[/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/40153298/356c0a0fc418652a85531b5085db5f64c1311d9c.jpg"][/img][/p][p]If you happen to be an Austro-Hungarian with a distinct lack of ammo, don't worry, Mother Nature's got you covered. Scattered around the mountain you'll find piles of rocks that work just fine against Italians. Just drop them over the edge and gravity takes care of the rest![/p][p][/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/40153298/f971a0caed2c37147e9613452da1145f596b9416.jpg"][/img][/p][p]That's Ascent Summarized!

Bundle up, lads, it’s a cold one out there
[p]The wind bites harder at the summit, so you might want to equip yourself with the Glacial Units Pack and Altitude Units Pack to brave the cold in style. Featuring mountain-ready uniforms and gear inspired by the real soldiers who fought across the icy peaks of the Italian Front.[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/2214670?snr=1_2108_9__2107"][/dynamiclink][dynamiclink href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/2719540/Isonzo__Altitude_Units_Pack/"][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p]
