I know what you’re going to tell me: they were monsters who carried out brutal repression and I answer “I know”, but I would like to give an idea of guerrilla events for the axis as a counterpart to the French or some Italian squadron since there is little material for that faction
The Germans have the Werewolves, and at least one SS squad (second TT flamethrower, if my memory serves me right). Also, a lot of German cosmetics depict SS-only camo…
We have already crossed this line, this should be fine.
but when I try speak about japan, everyone jump to my neck, god, I remember when I spoke about the death squads of the naval landing forces and wow, the hate was real
Unlike National Socialism, Fascism does NOT involve racial differentiation so they committed very few war crimes, especially when compared to other units involved in anti-partizan warfare, the Blackshirts were rather gentlemanly and Blackshirt paramilitary is NOT recognised internationally as an extremist organisation so there should be no issues with adding them.
Though to be honest since the only real noticeable difference between “normal” Italian and Blackshirt units were the shirts they wore were different but the rest of the uniform was the same, (regulars wore green, blackshirts wore black) but that had changed after the Armistice when all Italian units switched to blackshirts so eventually, those uniforms will get added anyway.
I have no problem with the black shirts and there are various units such as the M armoured division (and its de-fascist successor Centauro 2) and the naval landing black shirts, the 12th legion with the Galenaic helmet, the Black Brigades, GNR , 1st “Mazzarini” Paratrooper Battalion etc…
We do have quite a few “double schnitzel” squads, besides colaborators and other… units with unpleasant history. I see no reason as to not add the blackshirts, given the other units we currently have.
exactly, and even allieds have their own mean units, just as example moroco riflemen (premium btw), look what they did or the war crimes of canada man, if we are going to complain for X or Y just do me a favor and make japan disappear because 90% of their actual squads are involved in disturbing stuff
