Would you like to see this Italian truck, know to germans as the Gepanzerte Manntransportwagen S.37(i) added particularly for a faster APC adjacent to all the others?
Yes (TT)
Yes (Italian event squad)

I believe the model with the open back should be used here just getting all angles or alternatively the one with the cage
Currently the TT APC that germany has is slow, large and compared to others a half track instead of a wheeled truck… it brings many complications such as slower speed and less off-road maneuverability (ironic) mixed with being incredibly bad for hills
With Italy being Germany’s sub nation i think it’s fair they get some representation while also filling a gap in balance… especially considering the recent event.
History:
Spoiler
The Fiat-SPA AS37 is a truck produced by the former Società Piemontese Automobili (SPA) for the Italian Royal Army specifically for use in a desert environment, hence the acronym AS, Saharan Truck. This truck was based on the previous TL37 Light Tractor of the same company to obtain a troop transport vehicle. The first examples equipped Balbo’s Libyan Saharan car-aircraft companies in 1938 and were used on the North African front until the end of hostilities in 1943.

What? This isn’t suggesting the autocannon version… also this quite literally is a troop transport vehicle i don’t see where you get “Infantry fighting” from it.
Also it’s small and fast which is why i suggested it if you didn’t like that i choose a more obscure vehicle instead of the giant fiat 665NM just say that… adding this doesn’t mean we can’t have as 42 or the 20mm version of this.
Or do you want a Ho Ha copy that’s grudgingly slow as well?
I suppose atleast the 66nm could be fast judging by the wheeled design.
atm, one truck per tree would be ideal, So all is needed there is the opel blitz for the germans in which case, which I think is already modelled in game, just needs to be added as an APC.
But absolutely in the future a fiat of some descript for the italians, and a Bedford/CMP Truck for the British.
I agree but italy and britain are both forced into their respective allies so they deserve representation as they have said there is no intention of adding sub factions.
I would prefer the blitz and or any wheeled vehicle over the sd kfz 7 but think the size of this fiat would be a big advantage especially compared to the UC
Not long ago I suggested the Breda 52 thanks to the fact that it was 90% ready on WT and since the developers don’t want to put in the effort to make new stuff (look at the two Bren Carrier copy and paste event) it would have been an easy job for them
