Nice work! Another tin can to scare infantry and somewhat light tanks. I donĀ“t understand the big deal about that thing. :P

Edit: But a nice update! Everything that makes Italians more independent is welcome.

What I love about that tank is that it operates different from others. Vikers tank had a bastard child with an M3 Grant.

Anyone recall the fun they had with this tank in BF42 road to rome?

And its nice to see the Italians get their own arty. Its a clean model too. I always thought COD and BF2 looked similar close up - This just justifies that.

Great an Italian tank, let's hope it won't fall apart before you manage to drive it to the front!  :P

The canon is nice too! Finally proper arty for the Spaghettis.

but please, never replace a German tank with this thing, 37mm makes me shiver.

I'm confused, fh2's using a model made for an RTS-game? nothing wrong with that I suppose, I like RTS's myself, often prefering it above FPS's, but it's a completely different scale right? Or was this Cannon made by Battlefield 1918 and skinned by someone from The Great War mod?

Anyhow, it looks swell, with the amount of detail well up to the standard we've come to expect from fh2, love that typical Italian tin can (just a tad too large to be labelled a tankette?) as well. I have no problem with small spaces but I already feel nauseated when looking at that thing!

Cool update but i will never use it against other tanks, its useless and underpowered. As for the field gun, could be converted to that at gun variant using the pak 38 carriege and the big muzzle.

Armor is terrible, and it doesnt has a turret...rather use the Cruiser iv with the 57mm that can be used against other kind of tanks.

A loss? ^^ Nah, everyone knows that I dont like the italian tanks because they are always outgunned by ally tanks. So when there's german tanks available, it's what I pick.

True Yustax, but still we can all agree that diversity is great. For Keren I ll probably grab a sniper rifle rather than a tank :D

 :o Outstanding update!!!! The M11/39 will be very fun for sure (now Carro Veloce is needed ;D). Besides of Keren, in what other map will appear? Bardia and 1st Tobruk right?

That's the point man.

People took pride in downing Bf-109Es or Fs while on Hurricanes. But as a muscle car fans, I don't dig that kind of stuffs too much. For me, bigger is better most of the times.

The double Breda 38 is clearly the most OP MG in the whole game.  If you time firing the other gun right, you never stop firing and you never overheat.  Of course, you have to overcome the temptation to fire both guns simultaneously.

If its the same tank as I remember, then it is awesome as an infantry tank. I remember using that turret to mow down bunny-hoping infantrymen. True, its not so good in the anti-tank role, but don't use it that way.

The sandbags on the Fiat M11/39 look at bit weird. But maybe it is just the perspective.

You are right. It's better to have diversity than just one or two type of tanks. And I suppose I could grab the tank for light vehicles and against infantry. And hey, 37mm may not be the most greatest of projectiles, but with good strategy, it can be well placed at the sides, turret or rear.

Tank combat is definitely the best thing for me in the mood.

I will enjoy every second of killing yustax with this beast in 2.45  ;)

We shall see. I do give italian tanks a chance from time to time, so if this tank is faced by kinda more or less equal opponents, then no objection from me...but something bigger like a Sherman, eh, would never pick it.

Toughest opponent would be matilda, but that is dangerous opponent for any axis tank in Africa. Other than that, it's more or less equal  :). Though no one knows when devs get brainfart and add it on el alamein  ;D

Nice timing. Just been reading about il Duce in Chester Wilmotts The Struggle for Europe which I discovered on a local market book stall. Ya know reading the plate listing in that book is like reading the FH map listing.

Both Matilda and Valentine are very frustrating. My only chance is to make them run into planted mines (realistically) or huge amount of Geballte Ladung.

Thank God they don't carry HE shells.
