Would be really nice to see a big combined arms map with Italians.

Obice da 105/14. Italian 105mm howitzer. Designed during WW1, some like this one where moderinzed with pneumatic tires

Thats an OTO Melara Modello 56 Pack Howitzer.

I don't think the Italians adopted any 105mm Howitzers until after WW2.

The Italian counterpart to the leFH 18 would be Obice da 100/17.

Shitty google giving me the wrong pictures

Oh well,100mm,105mm it doesnt matter
the italians need field artillery, thats what matters

if only a magic fairy appeared and she granted us people to make more italian stuff  :-[ :'(

As far as I know not many of these type of trucks were made, but not much italian equipment was made in large amounts.
actually fiat produced quite many trucks. The italians mounted everything on trucks. AA guns

Even the 90mm was once mounted on a truck
It was still far more common then the Puma  ;)
many trucks yes, but the issue was how many guns were mounted on them
57 were ordered to be mounted on heavy trucks designated autocannoni da 90/53 -wikipedia
90 90/53 on Lancia 3RO & Breda 51 completed by 43 - italie1935-45.com
~16 100/17 on Lancia 3RO - italie1935-45.com

no info on 102/35 or 105/35 but couldnt have been more than the lesser calibres

Also its about usage, not numbers.  Those trucks saw non-stop combat, and were used exceedingly well.

Don't we need this?


Most common 'tank' for italians I believe. We could have both the mg version and the 20mm one :)

Don't laugh, though. The Polish 20 mm TKS tankettes destroyed a bunch on Panzer III's during Fall Weiß :)

Holy crap that gunner was good!

I guess they could be effective being so small and so low to the ground. Plus a 20mm gun isn't one to be laughed at.


Would be nice for Italians to have this and Germans to have the Panzer I. It'd be awesome to have maps with tanks on each side only being light tanks - Vickers vs. P1 and L3/33s. Also Vickers with 15mm Besa please :D

GNR ?? it's Guns'N Roses !!!  XD

New italian stuff is always a good thing, since it's the only non-complete faction. But now devs will work on Ostfront. Italians fought on this front if I remember but probably that devs will focuses on Russians and Germans...
