I’d just like to point out that Rommel had Italian armor, which was not fit to fight against allied armor. Yet, with his leadership, performed well. Yes, having commanders who can make quick calculations and exploit weaknesses makes a big difference.

Uhm? The russians DID retreat. Or are you saying they all died or surrendered when germany attacked? In africa, the Italians weren’t motorized, while most other units were. Can’t chase someone who’s running faster than you’re marching.

I dunno, I don’t think its much of a military feat throwing men at the enemy untill their out of munitions.

Besides, you want historical… Do hitlers plans again.

The whole point is that now YOU’RE incharge of the nations. Maybe the Italians would have been better if musulini wasn’t all Gungho on Italian pride and had more traning from the germans, copy their designs. blah blah.

Just saying, When germany wins Axis and allies, its COMPLETLY un-historical! LOL duh.

Besides, its not like the russians faught much better.
