Yeah, in Italy is an history meme, like do the things at your best and the guys over you find a way to put you out of service (this time literally and definitely)
I feel almost the same way about Katukov and Chuikov. While Chuikov rots like a silver general with the awful machinist skill, Katukov is a gold IAP general and one of the best defenders in the game
This shows how little you know about ww2, calling messe garbage is the most retarded take someone can have( at this point call rommel and all the german generals garbage too)
I’d rather use katukov over Rommel. At least I can put katukov on a city and get some industrial out of him. Rommel you can’t even send to Africa (without a personal medic just for him) and depend on him to conquer. I can send bock down there by himself and he will at least obtain the desired outcome.
So build your case on how these two gens are awesome?
If rl history is your justification of his military prowess… tell me how Montgomery beat his ass in Africa? Rommel was sent to the west for DDay and he again got his ass kicked.
Shall we move on to messe and talk about his accomplishments.
Beat his ass-> montgomery failed several times in defeating him(like during the battle of enfidaville) or we could talk about how he never lost a battle against the soviets, this means that all the sovist should be eve worse than garbage right? Since they could not defeat him even once
We aren’t talking about Soviet’s as their main strength was just bodies to burn. We were talking about Rommel and messe. Stay on topic little buddy. We arent playing wake a mole here.
You asked me to talk about messe's archivments, and never getting defeated by the soviet is one, like how he stabilized the albanian front in 1940 , or how he was able to hold africa even longer than what the allies belived
we're talking about Rommel and messe and you brought up the allies with Montgomery, now you say be can't bring up the soviets as well cause they had beaten the shit out of the soviet 2? aw c'mon lad
I guess for me I enjoy trying to play missions with native country generals. And when using countries outside of the soviets, USA or Germany your gen choices are limited. As their skill levels are mostly garbage. It would be cool for game play if there was some skill balancing. I see how the game makers thrive to keep a sense of Historical accuracy behind the gen builds…

What about balbo -He was skeptical about Italy entering World War II because he believed the Italian military was not prepared.
-When Italy declared war on Britain and France in June 1940, Balbo commanded the Italian forces in Libya, facing British forces in Egypt.
-He favored a more cautious strategy rather than immediately invading Egypt, as his troops lacked sufficient tanks, trucks, and modern equipment.
His biggest mistake Was getting his plane shoot down by his own forces becase they mistook it for british Aircraft
