Re: French and Italians
 
I hope both, Italians and French will be in. I personally like the italian equipment.

The Semovente kicks ass! Also cool tanks like L6/40, M11/39, M13/40, M14/41...
And the Reggiane RE 2005 and Fiat G55 Centauro IMO were some of the best fighterplanes of WWII :nodding:

The French were the toughest SoBs in Europe. They held out for as long as they could, but the German army's morale beat them in the end. Don't insult the French, you WILL be torn apart here.

As for the Italians, they didn't want to be in WWII... that kind of accounts for their abysmal, albeit brave performances.

not insulting the french army casue they probably were very good, but the government did surrender to the germans and helped them out, but there were the free french forces in britain and the french underground. And as for the italians, thats very right the people did not want to fight and most of the forces defending italy were SS or wehrmacht, but i still think it would be great to see italian maps and french maps with the french defending.

but what id really like to see is aussies, but that'll never happen casue we never get recognition for anything.

Yeah, love to see the AutoBlinda and the berreta mocheto in game for the Italians, even if it is only one map, it'd be nice to have one like Breakthrough's. *thinks canyons with AT guns and loadsa MG nests*

Um....Italians hated Germans, so...why would they fight that hard as their ally?

Hey hey...I'm kidding...no really....no no honestly...really...just a joke...swear!!

[QUOTE=AntonioBora]Yeah...I don't know if you could call a country like france cowards. They had just as good of tanks as the germans, more tanks if you combine the bef. But, having WWI in your backyard (while it was never fought in germany) and losing 25% of your young men in that war can be a little disheartening.QUOTE]

did germany loos men in WW1?:uhoh: and what happened to germany from 1918-30? what did franchies do to Germany as victors of WW1?:deal:
as for "They had just as good of tanks as the germans, more tanks if you combine the bef" all I can say huh? I must have feel asleap in that history clas...

Yes, the AutoBlinda was a pretty good armored car; and a funny name for a reconunit :p
Theese were probably the best Tanks the Italians produced in WWII:
Carro Armato M14/42 (only 82 were produced and were later used by the Germans)

http://www.buildingweb2.org/userdata...6593320041.jpg

Carro Armato P40 (about 80 were produced and nearly all of them were used by Germany)

http://www.buildingweb2.org/userdata...6593320042.jpg

Semovente M42T 75/46 (only 15 were ever produced and for German service only)

http://www.buildingweb2.org/userdata...6593320043.jpg
You can see by the production numbers that Italy really had a lack of production-power. But i would love to see theese vehicles in FH (especially the Semovente), and if not under Italian command maybe in german service...
Ofcourse there are other things to do first, but maybe in FH 0.99?
