Is Don Jon an accurate and/or flattering portrayal of Italians? Did Joseph Gordon-Levette do an Italy face?

The opera Don Giovanni covers that story well. As is typical of Italian culture, it was written by an Austrian and set in Spain and only used their language.

they got off light in ww2 despite how it was all their fault for producing fascism, because despite being terrible at war they knew how to opportunistically surrender. they surrendered so well that people insult the French for surrendering instead of them. utterly sick.

they were so bad at war in ww2 that wargames have to invent special rules to capture how idiotic and bad they were. like using up more water in a desert campaign because they were still boiling it all away to make pasta. they all look like mario and yell Yippie! ahaha! imma trying to recreate da roman empire, but king koopa beat me up witha brick, mama mia

[52.6] The Italian Pasta Rule

One of the biggest mistakes the Italians made during the entire Desert Campaign was to provide their troops with a diet which was composed, in large part, of spaghetti and macaroni. Aside from providing insufficient protein (this wasn't Buitoni Brand) pasta has one serious drawback in the desert: you need water to cook it! Therefore, each Italian battalion,when it receives its Stores, must receive an additional 1 point of water when stores are distributed. Any battalion-sized unit that does not receive their Pasta Point (one water point) may not voluntarily exceed their CPA that turn. Furthermore,Italian battalions not receiving their Pasta Point that have a Cohesion Level of -10 or worse immediately become Disorganized,as if they had reached -26. As soon as such units get their Pasta Point,they regain the original cohesion level(i.e., the level they had before they disintegrated.)

war in the east just hard capped their morale at 50/100 or something and they surrender in 1943 regardless of how the war is actually going (but can have that delayed if you garrison other axis troops in their country)

This game sounds great

Wikipedia posted:

The Campaign for North Africa has been called the longest board game ever produced, with estimates that a full game would take 1,500�hours to complete.[1][2] Reviewer Luke Winkie pointed out that "If you and your group meets for three hours at a time, twice a month, you�d wrap up the campaign in about 20�years."

Wikipedia posted:

To give an idea of the game's complexity, reviewer Nicholas Palmer outlined the actions for one side's single turn. As a first step, before playing, the player or team must make unit organizations charts for every one of the hundreds of counters on their side. Then each turn:

Plan strategic air missions
Raid Malta
Plan Axis convoys
Raid convoys
Distribute stores and consume stores
Calculate spillage/evaporation of water and adjust all supply dumps
Determine initiative
Determine weather (Hot weather = more evaporation of water)
Distribute water
Reorganize units
Calculate attrition of units short of water and stores
Begin building construction
Begin training
Rearrange supplies
Transport cargo between African ports
Bring convoys ashore
Deploy Commonwealth fleet
Ship repair
Plan tactical air mission if airplanes are fuelled
Begin air mission
Fight air-to-air combat
Fire flak
Carry out mission, return to base, airplane maintenance.
Place land units on reserve
Movement:
Move units, tracking fuel expenditure and breakdown points vis a vis weather
Enemy reaction
Move more units
Combat:
Designate each tank and gun as deployed forward or back
Plot and fire barrages
Retreat before assault
Secretly assign all units to anti-armor or close-assault roles
Anti-armor fire
Adjust ammunition
Deploy destroyed tank markers and update unit records to reflect losses.
Carry out probes and close assaults
Release reserves
Move rear trucks
Begin repair of breakdowns
Make patrols
Repeat all movement and combat steps a second time
Repeat all movement and combat steps a third time[10]

This entire sequence would then be repeated by the other player or team, completing one game turn.

Wikipedia posted:

In 1976, a team of developers started to create CNA, with Richard Berg responsible for the gigantic map. After six months, all of the other developers had left the project, and Berg was asked to complete the game on his own, which he took two years to complete.

oh and they hosed up their surrender so bad that the germans knew they'd switched sides before the italians on the front line did so the germans just started destroying them, resulting in the entire italian army basically disintegrating. boopita bappA
