Pvt. Ryan Posted November 5, 2001 Share Posted November 5, 2001 The Italians will make their debut in CM3, unless someone makes a Mediterranean mod first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people have been asking the same questions lots of times. I was just larking about. I will remember to disable my sense of humour, just to please you.

Cpl Carrot Posted November 6, 2001 Share Posted November 6, 2001 I was told as a lad that in the Italians put their gearboxes in backwards so they could 'redeploy' faster. I trust my leg was getting pulled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that by and large the average Italian soldier (though there were exceptions) had a shrewder estimation of his nation's chances in the war than his leadership. Therefore, he saw a long sojourn in a prison camp as reasonable alternative to getting killed or maimed in combat. Too bad more of his Axis comrades failed to share in that realism.

gatpr Posted November 6, 2001 Share Posted November 6, 2001 upper volta indeed . The nation in question is known as Burkina Faso. No jokes about Ougadougou either please. But seriously LW has an issue there were lots of Italian troops who served in the USSR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
