History is VERY important for anyone.

Also is necessary for any game/mod who attempt to represent one part from the past.

perfect! history games are also a way to remember...so every detail is important for a faithful reconstruction

Indeed my friend.
The Italians also failed to capture Greece, which was obviously a lesser power, and then, once again the germans came and secured axis domination.
Of course i have nothing againts Italians, i'm sure they are fine people and have a legecy to be proud of, but the Italians army has nothing to offer the title "Company of HEROES".

of course,but it's historically wrong,Italian Army was present in Russia With 230.000 Soldiers,they had bad equipments but they fought with honour being useful to the Germans against first Soviet's assault...
i've posted some things in the other topic...

How many things have done Italia in eastern front for germany ?

I tell you =>NOTHING.

Other countries yes.

Check germany allies in that period and zone of conflict,and you will find the answer=>who was the most powerful allied of germany against Russia.

you're bad informed,i tell you that 90.000 italian soldiers died in russia! Mussolini sent them in russia through ice with bad equipments and weapons,but despite this they fought with strenght and honour.The Soviets said : "only Italian Alpini can be considered unbeaten on URSS's ground

totally agree with you! Italy must be present as axis allies in this game,it's historically correct!

Italy used also other veichles during WWII:

CV-33 Flamethrower


Fiat Ansaldo Semovente M34 120/25 : the best tank produced by italian "Regio Esercito"
