NIEM: adding Italy

While Italy did of course change sides and some Italians fought for the Allies, that would be way too confusing and OP imo to add to the game.

It would be good to have some Italian-American soldiers (more variety in names for all factions is always good) but I cant see how specifically pro Allies Italians would work.

Plus it would potentially mean Italian weapons get added to the Allied tech tree which just annoys me, we have enough copy paste of national weapons amongst the factions as it is. (I still cant believe they gave every single tech tree a German rocket launcher)

if they didnt add the panter, tiger 1 tiger 2 p and h it would not be needed, and yes planes are fine if you can bring a plane and a tank

How about making it only available for the Italian Squad in the Allied Faction

Valid suggestion but DarkFlow wouldnt do that. The only way your idea would work would be another premium/event guerilla squad and I think we have more than enough of those already.

But in fairness to you, if they ever did a BIG Battle for Italy update then perhaps the idea above could work.

Presumably they would be similar to existing French, German and Soviet guerillas with civilian clothes and then armbands for Democratic Italian forces (not sure the proper name).

But Id rather see Italy get its own faction or sub faction first and focus on proper Italian squads. For example an Italian (and British for Allies) APC squad.

I see NIEM, so I like.
I have a nice book for italian stuff that I got recently, here:


Lots of interesting stuff, pics, vehicle characteristics, some technical drawings too. A bit disorganized, but that’s not a big deal.
I also bought another book about italian small arms, but it hasn’t arrived yet, and the package might have been lost, so I sadly won’t get it very soon.

Well they can just give more Italian squads and stuff and give option to change squads and cosmetics to Italian.

What they can do for now, is just move all current Italian. Things into this tech tree, give us a few new squads, a few new tanks and planes, and I’ll be satisfied… for now…

They could also bring back some legacy squads instead of creating new ones: bring back those that are not available, and swap the already available italian squads in the german tree with old german legacy squads.

I mean, yeah, why not, but it would be a good way to bring back the legacy squads, because a lot of people seem to want to get those. And knowing how the devs work at the moment, they try to spend as few resources as possible to make new stuff, so in my opinion, this could be a way to make new things with old stuff that could be “fine”. Hopefully Enlisted will get more resources once Active Matter is released.

Is active matter their new game?

It would just be a transfer, it would not be removed.

Yes, they even released a trailer during the gamescom, so it must be close to release now.

I hope that game burns and falls harder than the twin towers.

Sadly, I can’t. I live in Australia, which means I’m 14 hours ahead of you, or 11:42pm currently.

Gday fellow Aussie, we really need an Australasian server. I’ve previously suggested Singapore since it could work for AUS and NZ but also Southeast Asia and most importantly for DarkFlow, China.

You’d think since War Thunder has a South-East Asia server, they could just allocate a small amount of it to Enlisted too. Maybe they don’t have a high enough proportion of players from this area though.

Yeah, the Chinese players really need to be kept separate from our servers. Not in a racist or discriminatory way, but discarding the cheaters, most of them are leagues ahead of us anyway. Every match I’ve lost, there’s been a Chinese name on the top of the leaderboard.
