Signs of Carro Armato Addiction.....

40roundsready · 04-22-2006, 12:41 AM

I just wanted to share with other AAM junkies my particular addiction to Carro Armato tanks and its warning signs. When the base set was released I had just 1 and am now up to 6 with 2 more on the way! Stages of Carro addiction include:

1.Denial-"I can stop buying Carros anytime I want."
2.Anger-"Dont mess with me or I'll use my Carro rush!"
3.Bargaining-" Just 1 more Carro off E-bay and then I'll Quit this time."
4.Acceptance-" Hi my name is (insert name) and I am a Carro addict."

If you are a fellow Carro addict sound off! I am curious to see who has the most of these highly regarded yet highly flammable beauties.

Only have 4, but with counsling I'm learnig to cope. I love this tank, and not because of my Sicilian/Italian ancestory, but because for the points, and delegated on the battlefield carefully, Its dangerous! (to both sides) "HI, my name is Steve and I'm a Carro addict!"

I think WotC could help curb our Carro addiction with the addition of more Italian armored units!

Funny your saying this. I have 3 Carro Armatos and one of our newer players already has 4! I do like them. They are a neat little tank that I think would be fun to play a game with lots of Chinese, Japanese, T-70s, Carros, Crusaders and just about any tank that is bad and or has a negative SA like prone to breakdown. I think it could be interesting.

And after 4 turns of slugfest, the objective control game ends with NO ONE on the objective!

Everybody blown up/immobilised/perma-disrupted...

ROFLOL!

Yes the Semovente or even a Autoblinda 41 armored car would do for a fix.

gloriesofold · 04-23-2006, 03:19 AM

Any one remember that Italian armored artillery, I think it was something like a sem-42? And how about that anti-tank? truck, the Brita somethin somethin? a how bout an Italian Fighter Re2000? or an Italian bomber ca-64? I most likely dont have the names right, but maybee you know what I'm yapping about, I sure don't lol

Even though it never saw action as an Italian vehicle, I would LOVE to see a P26/40!

A couple of prototypes were completed at least and I think these would give the Italians a nice, competitive boost.

Oh, and "I can stop buying Carros any time I want"!
