Italy expansion ideas?

I have a blitz expansion that I have not lost with in 3v3 or 1v1 if executed correctly. I'll explain it here and if anyone wants a in game demonstration pm me and I'll help you. Firstly move your gen from Rome to Naples buy a Trans in Naples and all infantry there. (Or save one for a later trans) send them to the north od Sicily and zoom glitch the infantry there into the ship. Head over to cagliari and either go to Spain if your risky as you will just reach or go to north italy and stack Belgium, in both cases leave your gen in the ship and send him to either switzerland from Spain or switzerland croatIA. Next put 5-8 in Switzerland from north italy 3-4 more from Belgium from north italy and 2-5 in Luxembourg from north italy. Next buy an transport in Bari and send it close to Rome buy all infantry in Rome and send it east into balkans. I typically risk and over expand but you have 15 infantry, that's enough to min hungry Slovak Croatia Bosnia montenegro. There you have it my favourite t1 italy.

3v3






1v1

Let this thread be a shining example on how "helpful" are the high ranks...

Except for a few ones, like Knez

Thanks guys that was funny and educational.

Thank you clovis

My favourite italy is blitz, I send 13/gen to Madrid,14 north to benelux and Switzerland (whatever I feel like hitting and min to every thing south of Germany + I min hungry. It's super risky but to great award as the typical player no matter where they are tends to play conservitive to Italy to prevent greek/austria/Madrid stacking.


Edit: I send my gen to Spain so it will reach but I send him to whatever I stacked in benelux/switz after the boat lands.

Is a Greece rush as Italy SM/NC viable?? I've tried in private games, but I'm reluctant to try in an actual game since I've never selected Italy ever. So thought I'd ask here.

Low ranks should not play italy.
Nc rushes are bad.
