This mod allows historical Skirmish battles to be generated for the Italian Army on the Eastern Front from July 1941 to April 1943. From May 1943 Italian units that were not historically deployed on the Eastern Front are added to the Italian unit roster, allowing you to create "what if" Skirmishes.
Italian Units included:
CV33 Tankette
Italian Scout
47/32 Elefantino
Carro Armato L6/40
Autoblinda 41
Lancia 3RO
Semovente 47/32
Italian Bersaglieri
Italian Raw Fucilieri
Italian LMG
Italian HMG
Italian Mortar
Lancia de 90/53
Italian Solothurn
Italian Fucilieri
ITALIAN FLAMETHROWER
Italian Guastatori Engineers
Italian SNIPER
88mm FLAK
Italian 75mm Field Gun
Italian Camicie Nere
Italian Alpini
Cannone da 75/46 C.A. modello 34 AA gun
Cannone de 75/39 AT Gun
Fiat M13/40 Tank - for hypothetical skirmishes from May 1943
AS37 Protetto - for hypothetical skirmishes from May 1943
Semovente 90/53 - for hypothetical skirmishes from May 1943
Semovente 75/18 - for hypothetical skirmishes from May 1943
Thanks to Tim1966 for the German 77mm Gun model, which I have used for the Italian 75mm Field Gun.
I don't have any suitable aircraft models for the types used by the Italians on the Eastern Front, so they just use the normal German types.
Occasionally the Skirmish generator will give you a fixed force for the Italians, with no units available for selection. If this happens it is likely that the Italian force will be a bit smaller than it should be. It will mean that this particular scenario will be a bit harder than normal, so if this bothers you just create another scenario.
How to install
This mod is now available for download within the game using the Download Community Scenarios button.
Alternatively, download the compressed file;
http://www.mediafire.com/file/ga51tg76b ... h.rar/file
and unzip it using Winrar something similar. Then just paste it into your My Documents/My Games/BA2/CAMPAIGNS folder.
How to use
Open BA2 and select "Skirmish" from the main menu. Click the "Advanced" button in the middle of the screen. Click "Use Default Data" in the bottom right of the screen. This will bring up a list of campaigns and mods that you have installed, so select "Italian East Front Skirmish". Then just select your Skirmish preferences in the normal way and click "Create".
If you want to use the non historical Eastern Front Italian units in hypothetical scenarios select a date from May 1943.
enjoy!

Re: Italian Eastern Front Skirmish Mod
Pretty cool, Any plans on Hungarians or Romanians?
Re: Italian Eastern Front Skirmish Mod
I would love to, but without decent accurate models for the Romanian and Hungarian AFVs etc it is not really possible. I would not be satisfied with using other models as placeholders.
