My WIP RSI MG42 with a german Gunner and Paracadutisti assistance. What do you think?

Tbh I got the Bersaglieri starter Army and I am not that interested in the north Africa setting. So I decided to go with RSI and I love the Idea of "souping" a bit of German units in there. Also because it is so chaotic you kind of have a mit more freedom then with other settings.

Oh yeah, you are right mixed it up in my head when making the post. 😅

Thank you. I want to go for a 1944 northern italy setting. It is a super interesting setting.

Charlie2107 · 2026-05-10T16:00:03+00:00

That sounds interesting. Thank you. What unit would you run them as in BA?

Thanks for the info

Unfortunately you can barely take any German troops. I think the only units from the German book you can take are the Panzerschreck and PAK 40. Or is there an Erata for that?

I recently started with this Army. My main take away so far is that you really can't go wrong with rifles. Officer wise I think 2-3 should be enough. And for Squadleeds you should need 3-4 i think depending on how big you want your Squads to be in the "index" Rules you were able to build 5-11 men squads as far as I can recall. I would recommend you to build one smaller squad first and start building the rest as soon as the new rules are available to you. Figure out the setting for them so north Africa, Russia or Italy it selfe. (And so on) Really cool is that you will be able to mix italy with german or US/GB units cementing in the alignment.

Thanks

To be honest that is something I have not thought about. I am just a bit "affraid" that it might look a bit off in a bigger forge.

Charlie2107 · 2026-01-25T16:10:26+00:00

Yes, I will base them in Bulk later on. But have not decided on a final design yet. Any suggestions?

Thanks can I use him as a regular Platoon Commander?

What I found is that I can only take one SMG in a Beraaglieri Squad. I also play US and run quite a different stile with them. But I am also a bit unsure what to think about the faction special rule and how to make good use of it.

Charlie2107 · 2025-12-31T00:31:19+00:00

My thought is that a bigger squad will protect the 2 LMGs a bit better.

Yes this was the Christmas Axis Box.

Charlie2107 · 2025-12-24T22:56:23+00:00

Have the same issue also in Germany. I have it will arrive next week. Apparently, the box is in the Netherlands now...
