RIOT!!!(Forumites gained war goal:humiliate paradox, make HOI great again)

[Grallak]

The Italian Army completely fooled the Allied with their surrender, making them believe they were so weak that letting them keep an army and navy wouldn't be a problem. This was of course a ruse by Italy to make the allies believe they have won. They will soon return to this planet while the rest of the world is being stupid eating greasy food and making faulty furniture. They will never see it coming.

 

[Lifthrasil]

the rest of the Italian army literaly has a special rule in a board game which allows them to retreat three times as far as everyone else does.

The word you want to use is figuratively.
GRAMMAR NAZIS UNITE!

GRAMMAR NAZIS UNITE!

Unite as in "let us group together", or as in "let us unite the world under our iron heel"?

ahem......I should have made it clear I was talking about Italian WW2 tanks.....quoting modern French reverse gear technology is hardly fair

Italian reverse gear technology was cutting edge in 1941.

 

[Henry IX]

The Italians had the only 'medium' tank in 1942 that weighed less that 15t! It could cross all sorts or bridges that KV and Tiger tanks couldn't! Also it was riveted which makes it look like it is covered with piercings - and you don't mess with blokes covered in piercings!

I think the HoI4 fanbase is way luckier than the Total War fanbase, when they threw away their historical games in favor of some fantasy shit I was capable to dream when I was 4... no, 3..., 2 years old and leaving the pro-history fans with vague promises that something will come one day. HoI4 has a release date and all guarantees that it is still alive. Hell, even previous games are still being updated and rerun until they're 25% new without paying a dime, so I think you should be happy with what you have...

EDIT: Death to imperialist Ethiopia!

Italy had the best tanks of WW2

The amazing part is how well they hid the mower blades. Italian lawn tractor technology was decades ahead of its time. Modern American lawn tractors have yet to match either the armor thickness or the firepower.

I was simply awed by the one Savoia Marchetti Sparviero fighter-bomber variant that crammed a 105mm cannon into the underside of the fuselage. Obviously, having only one shot and needing to land to reload isn't a problem unless you accidentally miss. With that huge gun for intimidation, who needs machineguns or armor plate anyway?

 

[Maxoz]

Lets all remember they did give a jolly good thrashing to Ethiopia. Good show Italy.

Also: RIOT!

All I'm saying is that you shouldn't whine so much, it's roughly comparable to whining about the food in a restaurant is taking too long in a first world country while people in a third world country are starving...
