4th largest in only toranto?
u do have a total of 1 bb 2 cru 2 dd 1 ss  :)  5th in the game at least.
gh2, the combined Italian fleet was all at bay in Taranto minus few units (submarines and destroyers) near Somalia.
I didn’t delete the 3inf in Greece. I’ll also update UK ncm to Sudan.
Well for reference the Regia Marina (yeah not all stationed at Taranto) was made by:
6 capital ships, 19 cruisers, 59 destroyers, 67 torpedo boats, and 116 submarines.
From Wikipedia
The warships of the Regia Marina had a general reputation as being well-designed. Italian small attack craft lived up to expectations and were responsible for many brave and successful actions in the Mediterranean.
The problem is that Mussolini didn’t want to spend oil to mobilize the fleet so he always kept all the units at bay.
In my opinion he joined the war thinking it was ending soon, and he didn’t want to lose units. /facepalm
