New models: Fantasy FoWJust 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!

The books says they were, I'll do some research. |

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: http://www.comandosupremo.com/CarroP40.html "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. |
