Slow isn’t a problem, especially when it’s the US/China/UK block.

Don’t worry about it.

I fell a bid bad about Ethopia but well…what should I say… Italians.

I guess there is no game where they do NOT disappoint the Axis headquarter by the lack of combat skills I am afraid. This is sure biased and not true but with all games I watched and I played it feels like Italians have a higher tendency to completely whiff^^
And at least I think at this part of the map one hit more or less does not impact the game a lot at the moment.

I second this sentiment - Italians can be a joke more than just once in a while…
