Love this mod! Thanks a bunch. Starting Sandstorm with renewed effort as Italians only! Also really like that you kept 1 German tank the player can treasure and protect!

How do you install this? And if necessary how do you revert to the original?

Maybe a stupid question, but I´m a noob with mods.

So you dl in post 2 and place the files in: Documents>My Games>Order of Battle - WW2>Mods>

How do you start it then? Is there a special way to do this?

If not, dont you have to revert to the original somehow?

You get a start-up screen where you can choose between any mods in that folder or the normal game.
It asks this every time so you just have to exit and re-open if you want to play a different mod/basegame. :)

italy -> Italian flags with blazon

rename the AB series :

AB 40 = Autoblinda AB 40 (unit_5005)
AB 41 = Autoblinda AB 41 (unit_5006)

I cannot imagine Italians invading Slavic countries, it's too hilarious. I think both cultures would assimilate each other and create some volatile mix of awesomeness !

Sandstorm with full italians? Geezis K. Reist... Great idea! Well I really need to make more italian units, in this case. A number of thing they do not have, or too weak. Although that's part of the challenge :D

the backlog of Italy in technology is especially noticeable after 1943.

the program of rearmament - solves the problem with Italian tanks, but what about the aviation .. now I'm going through the operation of Hercules. prestige is not very much)

sorry for my English

Thank you guys,

It woke me and reminded me another similar mod but certainly more interesting with another nation :idea:

It would be interesting to have more units switchable for the Italian army in this mod :idea:
I would have to see if Kriegsmarine would be compatible :idea:

Any chance this will be upgraded?

I´ve played through blitz and panzer and are at mission 4 in Endsieg, but the Russians lag a lot of their newer tanks and the challenge is kind of gone. Funny sidenote, instead of the newer Russian tanks the game delivers Japanese tanks.
