Yes it was sold to the Dutch people as build up mission but those anoying Taliban wouldn't leave them alone. So it has become more of a fighting mission than a build up mission. They are in Uruzgan wich is also
"traditional" Taliban country. (Pretty close to Helmand)
We were forced by our Nato allies to stay longer over there to 2010 because none of them would take over the mission. Although they were to stay only untill 2008.

Yeah the Dutch and British seem to be doing most of the Nato fighting for Europe, whilst Germany and France sit on their arses in the north of the country, doing very little. I think the Dutch would be a better addition over Italy, but i can't see wither happening for a while :(

if u want Italy in PR, go and grab some moddelers and skinners, head down to the community section, and do it urself

the Canadians, Russians and the Isralis are already community WIP factions

Personally, I think there is enough factions in the mod. We could add the italian military, we could add the swedish military, we could add the german military, we could add the french military, we could add the spanish military, we could add the norweigan military, we could add the danish military, we could add the finnish military, we could add the greece military........................

A majority of the PR- players (and community members) are from Europe (mostly Western Europe) and North America, and therfore we could have an endless parade of western militarys accompaning the US and UK- side in the mod, but still only a few on the opposite side because everybody is busy working on a faction to "represent" their nations military. PR shouldn't be a mod where random factions is added so a few guys can feel patriotic, because that's what all this is about.

I have only one request: you guys know how sometimes snipers in the game will laugh when they make a far shot right? Well, when shooting the Italian Heavy-AT, if you hit your target, I think he should say "THATSA SPICEE MEATBALL-AH!"

according to wikipedia i cant see any amount of Italian troop numbers in Iraq

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multinatio ... ce_in_Iraq

under "2006 withdrawals"

is Italy though.

in afghanistan though they are active in 1 province though(source)

with troop numbers of 1,800 (source)

but according to that realistically we should add Germany and Netherlands first, and its ALOT of effort to add a faction in, when people would rather the DEVS define the already added factions

but can you see our point...

if we ad Italy a less 'active' force in iraq people will say;

"hey !! why cant we add this county"
"no add this 1"
"why add this 1 add this 1"
"u added this 1 why not this 1"

if they started adding more, they will still displease people, so just keep it the same. unless a community factions dose it.

Seriously, we'd all like our country of origin to be in PR, but it's just not feasible. There are enough factions as is.
Your name is Italian, yet you would not like to see Italians acknowleged for their work? Let me ask you, where in Italy does your family come from Ehh?? they can make "militia" in russia but no Italian forces! tell me why this would be so hard
