Hello there, is there an image for the
StuG III G Italian version, available?
I am thinking to experiment by adding core Italian units to the GTPG mode.
My idea is to add some to the core and see how I can put them in action.
Can anybody help?
Thank you
.....................
Historically, Italy got some of them but apart from training, the 1st Armored Division got them, did not have the time to put them in action. The Italian StuGs would be painted in a light tan colour with the Divisione "M" logo usually painted on the turret.
I found this site which gives, info about them.
It differs from the German StuG III G by the absence of the armour side plates, which were removed and by the addition of a smoke grenade launcher at the front.

Hello again, this time I am looking for an Italian version of Tiger I.
It will be added to my personal experimenting modification of GTPG.
Could you made me an icon based on the image attached (comes from the BE), painted in a light tan colour.
Thank you

Hi Faos333
Although there were no tiger tanks served in the Italian army, I still prepared this for you. Have fun.

Thank you so much again for doing this great job
I know they never served, but I am planning to experiment with them in a 1945 hypothetical campaign, so I thought to create an Italian licensed Tiger, instead of upgrading their obsolete equipment. So, in a hypothetical path, Germany permits its production to Italy.
I am going to change its characteristics a bit, to showcase difference of Italian production priorities.
My thought is to have less movement due to thicker armor. It will be fun.
The Italian Stug has already being in action in a GTPG testing alteration of mine.

The Dodge "Tanaké" armored car was a rather obscure French conversion was made on an imported Truck G60L in Beyrouth in 1940. The vehicle fought with Vichy French troops against the allies in 1941, with the 13th DBLE of the Free Foreign Legion against the Afrika korps in 1942, and in 1948 with the Syrian Arab Legion.
