Just looked over the new book. I have to sat that the Italian heavy would do wonders for my long-suffering armored forces, and should be legal at the platoon or detachment level since they did send a few to N Africa. Not too sure about the rest. Thoughts?

Howdy Duck! So Il Duce calls you to lead his troops to victory eh!  Well I too feel your madness!  When I get my Late War Poles done I'll plunge headlong into fielding a Hollow Legion of my own in the form of a Compaigna Carri. 
Anyhoo I take it the Mid War Monsters Handbook is out. I'll check my LGS to see if its in stock.
By the way I don't think any P40's were deployed to Afrika as they didn't reach significant production before the Italian Armistice. Anyhoo AVANTI SAVOIA y'all!

Hmm, you were correct. Only five or so were completed before the armistice, tho it appears the Germans got ahold of the production facilities and used some. So pure fantasy, darn.

Modified the header according to the standard defined in "Brief introduction" section. Was too vague.
For P.40, see for example here:

"Italy surrendered before they could be employed by the Italian Army." Never used in Africa, sorry. But, with a hundred pieces build, much more relevant than other midwar fantasies, like KV-3.
