Italy represented in the various WWWII games?

[Sangennaru]

I'm italian, i know pretty well my country and (unfortunately) our army....

During WWII, we were pretty ridicolous, I think that the best way to represent us in WWWII is in some funny way, like goblins... do you know anything about PAZZAGLIA granate? it was a handgranate quite powerful and... quite dangerous for the user, maybe there should be something like that... or maybe some kind of soldiers with really old weapons, among a lot of semi-futuristig gears... did you know that we used a 1891 rifle, during the war?

we were quite ridicolous, and i think it should be the best way beeing the "Gretchins" of the wwwii...

sorry for my italian-english

Hi Sangennaru,
the Moisin-nagant, one of the finest BA rifles in WW2 was designed in 1891, so that doesn't matter very much.

Has anybody seen this? This is 100% italian ww2 pulp: Fascists' Mars Colonization!

Ahhh, Fascisti su marte! Yes, that´s a great one. I downloaded the puny video files some years ago. That Youtube version doesn´t look any better... I´d really like to see those episodes in TV quality sometime.

Saw it on telly here in Italy. Pretty funny. 

The other day a saw a Young Ones scene on Youtube with Alexei Sayle as Mussolini. That's how I picture www2 Italians.

They made a longplay movie out of the serie, same title, with a weird Flash Gordon ending; that should be available... shame that non italian speakers can't catch the funny voice over.

I only understood some snippets from the text, but it already SOUNDED hilarious, and a perfect imitation of period commentary. And you get a lot of the plot just from watching, I think.
