ma che razza di sistema è ? bisogna sempre farsi riconoscere ?

Ok, I am responsible for this change and would like to receive better comments if you can...
"TERRIBLE" indeed is quite ingenerous, as I would rather say they are DIFFERENT....
Such kind of comment just does not appear to be constructive and I may suspect there is a kind of some hidden interest
behind I am not aware of...
your criticism is totally subjective with no arguments...
just emotion and if not better motivated in your next reply will deserve no credit from me...

What's more the restyiling of IT oobs covered a lot of items more than tanks' lbms but your post does not mention anything...
what about everything else ? or you simply get a look at pics ?




;)

By the way, just for any other reader: I simply decided to change existing painted pictures for tanks with real photos trying to put the best ones were available on line...

Such decision was motivated since at the moment I took care about IT OOBs there were both representations existing at the same time...
we had some units depicted with painted pictures...some other with real photos....I didn't like to have them so confused and decided to change all into real photos simply because there were no painted pictures as it should...it was a "standardization" step like the many other I played in general for IT units.

Thanks for the explanation and the work on the Italian OOB from us "any other readers", Ruxius. I play the Italians quite frequently (I like a challenge) and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary, so you must have done something right!

IMHO Ruxius added a refreshing novelty to the Italian OOB- something that those of us who like to play that Nation will enjoy.

If you do not like the pictures, the originals are still in your pic directory. You can rename those that you prefer to show up in the encyclopedia.

Ruxius also updated and improved the Italy text files for version 8.3. It was a lot of work and deserves appreciation. [&o]

The new texts provide players with more information than they might find casually in reference books on a subject that is not commonly available in English text books.

Of course, there is no accounting for taste but if you don't like something, the game permits you to make changes to pictures and text files.[>:]
They struggled with a ferocity that was to be expected of brave men fighting with forlorn hope against an enemy who had the advantage of position......knowing that courage was the one thing that would save them.
