Lets try to figure out what equipment was used in the Italian/North African theater.

-I know Italy had made tanks and weapons (They weren't very good). Put possibly borrowed a lot from Germany or Eastern troops?
-What other troops were fighting there for axis and allies in ww2?

BTW
shell shock
von ryan's express
catch 22

were all great ww2 movies about Italian campaign.

No, I would rather wait until TBF.

I think he means if you have a look at those mods, you will see some of the weapons. I know a lot of research was put into each. In fact the man who made Afrika 40'41 is JimRM2 and we can assume he will be on TBF dev team in some capacity.

Jim is making maps probably?  It's been a while since we had any updates, making progress let's hope.

Basically is oposite, North Afrika eats practically all italian armor production in med tanks and TDs (someventi) maybe only L6 light tank was more in the east front.

Italians have not a lot of viable vehicles but you have

Early Someventi variants with 75mm guns (more infantry guns than AT guns) and the one armed with 90mm used in Sicily (if you know WOT is like the WT tier 9 but in a worst hull)

Later Someventi were a lot better and maybe better than Stug III versions (one with a 105mm was very good)

Mediums... dont expect a lot here, they are more on the Stuart level but with a better AT gun but not a lot better (47mm guns)

The interest for me in italians is have one nation more to select but armor is not their main strenght.
