Suggestions / Re: Italians

Making an italian faction would be a weird idea, mainly beacause of balance. But you could put the Alpini (italian mountain troops who also fought in russia) as an infantry unit.
They could use weapons like MAB 38 smgs and Carcano 91/38 rifles. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAB_38)
MAB 38 was a very good weapon, but never reached the amount of German MP40s because of production issues.
Italians were not bad soldiers. In fact, Alpini were special mountain units, but they were sent with mountain equipment in a plain region against tanks and mechanised infantry (which aren't typical enemies of the battleground where they used to fight
)
You could put them as a basic infantry unit good vs infantry, but uneffective against vehicles. Maybe an upgrade could be the providing of MAB 38, or something like that.
