Italian infantry image - Europe at War Mod for Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts

yes

Well, pretty much every other infantryman different than the German infantryman was a noob in comparison. Just look at the statistics, they inflicted so much casualties to other countries. Keep in mind they started their war preparations years before the other countries.

hey armo what do u want to say about the battle of El Alamein? entire divisions of brits tanks knok out from italians using AT home made bombs... so no one say again that the italians are noob or something. they have fight better than the brithish. without have tanks or modern weapons like the brits -.-''' u jackass

ok ok i did not mean to offend you i suppose the italians where not that bad.
Even so i you have to admit that they messed up a lot. I can give you plenty of examples.
I have first hand evidence for this as my granddad was in cyprus during ww2 and has told me that when the italians came to bomb that they dropped all there bombs in the sea and turned round or got shot down by spitfires before they made it through. sorry mate you cant deny the truth.

i recognise that the cause was srong but under a military brave the italians was one of the best in that period. they in lybia and at El Alamain have reject the brithish a lot of times before collapse.

Italian troops were well trained, but thanks to inadequate equipment, poor leadership and basically not really motivated to fight they have been portrayed as totally useless cowards in popular myths, much like the French.

I surpose that makes sense.
