From what I remembered, Italy caused problems for the Nazis. They destroyed themselves with brave Italian uprisings against Facism. Then Hitler had to place Mussolini back in power again were he was defeated once more.

Also this is a repost, we might wait for Japanese and British implementation first.

The Italians fought the British and French in Africa. They also fought with the Greeks. The allies invaded Sicily in 1943 and auccessfully captured it, opening way for the future invasion of Italy. That way the Allies forced Italy to quit the war.

They have special units.
The Alpini=Royal Italian mountain infantry. In game: They move faster on mountain tiles and invisible while on it.
Autoblinda Fiat-Ansaldo=Armored car of the Italian army. In game:They move fast. They are a good infantry support unit and recon unit. They can move on harsh terrains easier than tanks.
From what I know, Italian's navy are strong but they have some disadvantages and untrained crews.

Italian infantry was unorganised, untrained and poorly equiped, their tanks were pretty bad (they often used german tanks as well), the only thing that was decent was their navy (as samuel said).

They have some militia units (the partisans) the regular rifleman unit, and some infantry unit with some anti tank capability like At grenade, some armored cars and some planes as well

The republick of Saló have some militia unit (camice nere) the regular infantry, the alpini (the mountain unit) the folgore (paratrooper unit) German tanks and some Italian tank, like the l6 or the m40 sahariano, and some at guns like Pak and German units as well

Italy fought against the Soviets in the Eastern front with Germany and when the allies made Italy "quit", Italy was divided between the republic under Mussolini control and still fighting with the Germans and the kingdom of Italy under the king's control that betrayed Mussolini and joined the allies.
And italian army was not unorganized or poor trained ( even Rommel said that the Italians had showed Germans how to fight), but they had really poor equipment with lots of problems and not enough for the troops itself.

Agree. The Italy that will be represented is the Mussolini one. Italians also had bad commanders and tanks. The soldier itselves is average while there are some units which are good like the folgore.

Sir they don't have Bad tanks there tanks were effective in mountains Regions Italy General Al thasi Varlo Thinks in 1936 that there main enemies are in Balkans Because once Balkans was the part of Holy Roman empire So Mussolieni Wants Italy to be Holy Roman Empire So General think that if they have to Fought in Balkans if we See Yugoslavia,Albania,Greece are in Heavy Mountains Region so it was clear they need Small-Medium tanks with thick Tracks and with thick Armour so They started Building there Tanks like this but in war it Turned out that they have to fight North Africa and also In Sicily so these poor Italians tanks Get Destroyed easily

I agree, I would love to see them in game, however we should finish British faction first. Japanese faction has all the basic units, we just need to look for more units.

I think their strength would play in infantry. Bersaglieri early game fast infantry to grab tcs fast, but not weak like jeep. Alpini has no problem in going on rough terrain. Cannone da 47/32 can be at and anti infantry in one unit and perhaps Italy can have more interesting units like jeep with aa gun mounted. Lighter tanks and good assault gun. Italy perhaps rule early game.
weakness:In case to reflect it's untrained units at first, there can be techs (training 1, training 2, training 3). Italian starts weaker, but they can just research this techs and become good.
In case of presenting outdated units on front, Italy perhaps can have problem in need of upgrading their factory buildings before able to train better units.

They should have better artillery and anti-tank weapons than any other faction with a few exceptions. Medium infantry but weak armored units and air force. I'd give them a good navy too.

The infantry could have a bit more health than other nations but do less damage because they ha bad weaponry. Their armored vehicles were pretty bad, but easy to produce. And they had a solid but technology lacking navy.

The M14 in the game has the same rendering as the M11/39. I think it should look more like the M13.

Also, I'm looking forward to the Semovente 75/18 and Semovente 90/53 for creation of Husky scenario.

The M14 has been fixed in recent update. That was a very fast response. Thank you!
