Italian Special Rules/Abilities?
-
I think the Italians should have rules that let them invade Yugoslavia and Greece without giving the France and the UK such a large IPP increase during peace time

- Frogmen- once per game ( or 3 times per game) the Italian player may make one target attack against any ship rolling 8 or less to hit.
- Bersaglieri -up to X of these may be built, in combat they have automatic hits ( they were sharpshooter units)
- Rommel effect- When German and Italian units are in combat and the German player has armored units, they receive a combat bonus of re rolling X misses.

@Slamhelsing
An interesting idea but there would have to be some alternative downside if you take the income increase away from the allies. -
@Imperious-Leader
I like the Frogmen idea. I think hitting on an 8 is a bit high. But if they worked similar to the Japanese Kamikaze rules where by you had a set amount to use (say; 4), hitting on 4s/5s, against specific targets (any Capital Ship, Escort Carrier, Battle Cruiser or Heavy Cruiser), in any sea zone in the Mediterranean that has an allied Naval Base of some sort. As long as the Italian player has at least one submarine or air transport/bomber to “deliver” the frog men.The idea being that the frog men are a hard to train unit, wouldnt be wasted on smaller targets and can only operate in the calmer waters of ports in the Mediterranean.

@Imperious-Leader said in Italian Special Rules/Abilities?:

YES - Bersaglieri -up to X of these may be built, in combat they have automatic hits ( they were sharpshooter units)
YES Build 1 a turn. Up to 6 max on map. Cost 3. - Rommel effect- When German and Italian units are in combat and the German player has armored units, they receive a combat bonus of re rolling X misses.
YES I have Rommel in Africa and any 2 German tanks that miss can re roll if they miss for 1st round only.
Ideas here which I have in my game are 6 Italian NA’s. Roll for 2 per game at start.
- Free Battleship : Place in Rome Naval port.
- Black Shirts : All Italian Inf attack +1
- Bravado : All Italian Inf defend +1 in only original Italian territories.
- German influence : Germany can buy 2 German units and place at any Italian factory.
- Puppet : Germany can buy 2 Italian units and place at any Italian factory.
- No Allies : Italy receives 5 Icps if no allies ships in Med.
Just a side note here all countries have event cards and yes 1 of the Italian cards gets to sabotage a allies ship in Med. (Frogmen).
- Frogmen- once per game ( or 3 times per game) the Italian player may make one target attack against any ship rolling 8 or less to hit.

@Dran-Black maybe it could work similar to Slovakian resistance. Britain/France decide whether or not they oppose for similar IPP bonus/penalties. If the Britain/France aren’t at war with a major power, they may send one existing infantry class unit each to Yugoslavia/Greece representing expeditionary forces. If they do and they beat the Italians they get one D12 income increase each. If they intervene and lose, they lose one D6 income each and Italy gains +2 peacetime income. If the allies do not intervene, they gain one D6 income each, and Italy gains a one-time bonus two IPP.

@Slamhelsing
Yeah that seems like a decent trade off. I’d make it that the Allies only choose to intervene after the italian combat move phase is complete.
I think that the Italians should only be able to go after both territories in the same turn though and only if they have annexed Albania on a previous turn. -
@Dran-Black I think that’s a great idea, gives more of a reason to actually annex Albania
-
@Dran-Black Does Italy get any bonuses if attack by Allies.
-
@ABWorsham4
I dont believe so. They can only attack after Italy has attacked another nation though.
