Morning Knp.
The Italians had no inclination to fight the British and even less the Americans, when they joined the war.
There was also a massive class divide between Officers and the enlisted man. This made morale very low and did not help create a fighting force. Italians were happy to be left alone.
The Italian army was also a foot one. Hardly any units were motorised and that would prove a problem in the vast expanses of desert and the seesaw nature of the campaign.
The British were lucky when they attacked in Dec of 1940 as they had only had limited objectives. The advance was so uncontested, that they kept going until they had Benghazi and Tobruk.
Being Italian, I love to laugh at my WW2 army’s dismal performances and unwillingness to throw their lives away for someone else’s glory.
When the Italians switched sides, however, things got very bloody as civil war broke out amongst the Fascists and Communists. Many Italians proved they were not afraid of dying once they had a real cause and future in which they believed.
My dad’s dad was in Africa, Russia and later ran and hid from the Fascists in Tuscany.
Multinational Carrier operations questions.
-
As I understand (understood) it if two friendly power are both at war, they can:
-
Land on each others carriers
-
Defend together
-
Launch attacks on each of their turns (i.e. 1 U.K. ftr, 1 russian ftr and 1 USA carrier).
Can some one please clarify because I was informed that this is not possible.
thanks in advance.

Slathosar is trolling. He does not know the rules.
You can share carriers with allies if both are not neutral with respect to each other.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes, but each unit attacks on its own turn. If the carrier attacks, the fighters are cargo and cannot fight.

Neutral USSR can’t land on UK carriers until R4 when they go to war.
I said “if they are NOT neutral.”

USSR IS neutral though
Not when it declares war on Japan

Neutral means not at war with anyone. If Russia is at war with japan, it is not neutral by definition.

Being at war in the Pacific theater does not apply to the European theater.
Yeah. They can land on UK carriers if the UK carriers are in the Pacific. If you had read the thread, you would have seen that.

We were talking about if it CAN happen, not if it is a good idea or likely to happen
