Italian armored trains & few more units
your job is incredible with this great mod that soon will surpass both robz (total faction) and GSM, I only ask few more units for the italian faction that will make the game very very interesting. I don't want only ask for these vehicles but I offer also lots of information about them; do you like the idea?
so....first of all...the trains....
Italy had many armored trains, under the control (strange but true) of the regia marina (the italian royal navy), these train were heavily equipped with 20mm (weapond already present in game) 75mm (the same cannon mounted on the truck) the 102/35mm (missing in game) and the 152mm plus the standard locomotive or an armored locomotive with two turrets with 47mm (the same of M15 Tank); now the pictures!

@Normand thank you very much!!!
I have also another idea that you may find interesting......
How about the autocannone 100/17? was a very popular vehicle used by the italians in north africa, if you have the model of the skoda short 100mm cannons it will be very simple to make( also because the chassis is the same of the autocannone 75/27 already in game).
now pictures!

what do you think?
was a very interesting vehicle with a great story (it also had EP shells with 130mm penetration)

While on the topic of italy the P26/40 in service was normally equipped with the 13.2 hotchkiss gun in an AA mount configuration the 8mm gun was also less commonly used(probably only on the prototypes) pic of hotchkiss gun mounted here: http://en.valka.cz/files/13_p26-40_112.jpg

Don't agree with you that this model easy to make as you need to create:
- new frame, new hull for truck;
- gun stand model.
