Additional Features

New Forces:

Italian Army
By the time Italy joined WWII, the Italian army was well-conditioned and experienced. The Italian army fought in Ethiopia 1935-1936, Spain 1936-39, and Albania 1939. Still, the Italian army was severely hampered by low morale, poor equipment, and even worse leadership, and it went from defeat to defeat until Mussolini’s overthrow in 1943.

Free French Forces
In June 1940, Gen. Charles De Gaulle appealed on BBC radio for French men and women to join in the fight against Nazi Germany. By the end of July, 7,000 volunteers had joined the Free French forces. The Resistance grew in strength under De Gaulle’s leadership, and after the D-Day landings, the Free French forces numbered 400,000 men and women.

Italian M1-139 Carro Armato
Designed as a breakthrough tank, the M11-39 entered service in 1939 as Italy’s most modern tank. Its career was cut short due to shortcomings such as armor that was too light and a hull-mounted 37mm gun that was too weak. In later models, the main gun was moved from the hull to the turret, which afforded greater range of motion and increased its effectiveness.

British AT gun 25 pdr.
This howitzer was capable of firing 25 pound shells at a rate of 12 per minute.

German BF 110
Powered by two 1,100hp engines, the Messerschmitt BF 110 served Germany in long-range escort fighter-bomber, reconnaissance, ground attack, and night fighter roles throughout the Second World War. The BF 110 entered service initially in 1939, and by the end of the year, due to a massive manufacturing campaign, 500 of these planes were in operation.

Italian LCVP
This landing craft is an Italian version of the more widely known Allied Higgins boat.

American M3 Grant
In 1941, the M2 was aging and obsolete, the famed M4 was not yet in operation, and the Allies needed a quick fix. The M3 was a rapidly produced medium tank, which filled the void and was used heavily by British, Canadian, and Australian forces. The M3 boasted two main guns -- a 37mm in the turret and a 75mm in a forward sponson of the tank.

American M3 GMC
This vehicle, a variation on the M3 half-track used for troop transport, became an effective anti-tank weapon. Modification included the addition of a 75mm anti tank gun mounted in the back where troops formerly were carried.

British Mosquito
This light weight aircraft was powerful enough to carry and drop 4,000 lbs. of explosives in bomber version. The Mosquito boasted excellent speed, altitude, and range.

German AT gun PAK 40
These powerful anti-tank artillery guns were fitted with a 75mm (2.95 in.) cannon, which could penetrate enemy armor up to 174mm thick.

German Sturmgeschutz
Designed for infantry support, the SturmGeschutz went into production in 1940, with output reaching 50 vehicles per month. The tank’s 75mm gun was offset to the right, while a vision port set in the left of the superstructure and twin periscopes allowed the driver and the gunner to operate the tank. Five of these tanks took part in the invasion of France.

Italian Breda Model 30
Considered to be a less than satisfactory automatic weapon, the Breda Model 30 fired unreliable 6.5mm rounds and had a relatively low magazine capacity. Though distinctive in appearance, the Breda lacked a handle for changing the red-hot barrel and featured an awkward hinged magazine, which made reloading a slow and laborious process.

British Sten Gun
The Sten Gun is a compact automatic weapon that features a massive bolt inside a tubular casing with front-fixed barrel and a left-side feeding magazine, which can be supported on the firer’s forearm. The gun was not popular with soldiers in the field, due to a tendency to jam, but it was cheap to make. Four million were supplied to the British Army in WWII.

K98 Bayonet
Every soldier who fought for Germany in WWII trained with this rifle -- for many this was their only weapon throughout the war. With the attachment of a scope, the K98 could be used as a sniper rifle. Other attachments included a shot cup, which enable the weapon to fire both explosive and armor piercing grenades, and a 10” bayonet issued in all theaters of battle.

NO 4 Bayonet
The culmination of years of trial, the No4 Mk1 was easier, faster and cheaper to produce than the SMLE. This infantry rifle was one of the first, full production weapons to utilize the aperture style rear sights, seen on all modern military rifles. When affixed with the "spike" bayonet, it became a menacing hand-to-hand weapon.
