      FPS are usually set during WW2 and on-ward but Italy has no recent military history worth mentioning.

      Garibaldi military career could make for a good game, just not an FPS though.

        I beg to differ. Italy had been quite active in africa and middle east. A game set in the somali civil war in the early 90s would be kino

        I'd fully expect Italian-Americans to throw a shitshow about it because he was an evil colonizer who conquered the South when them waz kangz and shiet.

    They're featured in every FPS that includes a "you are leaving the mission area" message.

    Outside the War of the League of Cambai as well as Lepanto, they've been irrelevant for the most part. They'd rather lend-lease than do the fighting themselves.
    Even their mercenaries are a tad goofy compared to Swiss and Swedish kinds.
    Italy did beat the Turks decisively, but that's when they were sick.

    Italy's as a country only appeared in the XIX century, so the only well-known major wars in which modern Italy took action was WWI and WWII.
    They did okay in WWI but are totally overshadowed by the French/English/German front and their performance in WWII would make France looks like a master tactician in comparison.

        If you don't consider the FFF as part of the French war effort, then Italy's run should stop at October 1943 then.
        Also, the Italian barely made it past the 10 km into french territories before they surrendered even though the frogs were getting buttfricked by the Fritz. So yeah, not the greatest record ever.

          the point is that nobody had a clear idea of what to do, and nobody really wanted to do that in the first place.

          I do not. "Effort" is also offensive in this context. Hollywood isn't reality.
          >then Italy's run should stop at October 1943 then.
          Correct.

    Italians are bad at warfare, and that's okay. Colonizing the rest of the world with your culture is a much more awesome accomplishment.

    That sucks man, it was the biggest colonial deployement in history and the Italians buttfricked them so thoroughly they still cry to this day

      yes I agree, a game about Italy getting their asses kicked in the first Ethiopian war would be pretty based. However the Germano Ethiopian war (because Italy did absolute Shitaly and took all the credit) would be pretty lame.

          Once again, the Italians did jack shit and got carried by Germany. Makes sense too considering they were more incompetent than usual at the time.

    Italy didn't even exist as a singular political entity until 180 years ago
    same applies to Germany, but unlike Germany, Italy was never truly a great power in their own right

      i mean he was, but not to the level this place make him out to be. the main problem with cadorna is the absurd amount of disciplinary reprisals and summary executions within his own troops and staff.

      idk mang, read about the history of the isonzo battles and tell me why nobody wants to portray the italians in them...
      Itd only work on a Sadcore storygame where "Please just leave we dont want to shoot you" works for drama..

    No one wants to play as Shitalians. Simple as. Isonzo is a good game though.
