| − | The '''Italian Army''' (''Esercito eItaliano'') is the official armed force of the [[Italy|Italian Republic]]. Its duty is the defense of the national territories, the defense of allied nations and, respecting the guidelines in the Italy Constitution, the partecipation in international war operations.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ==History==
| + | |
| − | [[Image:Ia_may2009.jpg|left|thumb|150px|Italian Army as of 11 May 2008.]]
| + | |
| − | The need of an official '''Italian Army''' was perceived shortly after the war module came online, experienced players like [[TerenceHill]], [[Dio Maksas|Maksas]] and [[certo85]] (along with other players) started the discussions to create an army with an optimal command structure that would have made easy to manage the operational forces.<br />
| + | |
| − | After various proposal, by the end of April 2008, a first draft was made: the soldiers, sorted by strength, divided in two big groups ''Parà'' (paratroopers) and ''Riservisti'' (reserve). The ''Parà'' and ''Riservisti'' were divided in groups of 20 (''Divisione'') and each group divided in squads of 5 (''Squadra''). The whole troops were controlled by by the President of Italy and the MoD. <br>
| + | |
| − | This first organizzation was tested in the [[France-Switzerland War]] giving bad results either in the chain of command part either in the supplies delivery, so the first proposal was rethough, deleting the squads inside the ''Divisione'' (divisions) and re-thinking the way of stockpiling and delivering supplies to the soldiers.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===The first reform===
| + | |
| − | In June 2008, with the election of [[Dio Akira|Akira]] as President of Italy, a total re-organizzation of the army was proposed by [[Colinar]].<br />
| + | |
| − | The new army, directed by the [[Commanding officer/Italiano|CIC]] (Commander in Charge, in Italian ''CdSM''), was divided into three commands (''Armata'') and each Armata in groups of 10 soldiers (''Divisione''). Each Armata and Divisione had a senior officer responsible for delivering orders and supplies, and an ORG (corresponding to the Armata or Divisione) used by the senior officers to easily absolve their duty. Along with the structural overhaul, a reform regarding the supply for the Italian Army was carried on by [[Dio Akira|Akira]], from now on (with variation) the Italian Army will stipulate contracts with various companies that will provide weapons through peace and war times, avoiding the fluctuation of prices in the free-market.<br />
| + | |
| − | Once the reform was completed, [[Colinar]] became the first CIC of the Italian Army. During his term, the Italian Army was mostly deployed in oversea wars such as the [[Second Sweden-Germany War]] ([[Germany]] side), [[Ibero-American War]] ([[Portugal]] side) and the [[World War I]] ([[PEACE GC|PEACE]] side).
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Peaceful times and new challenges===
| + | |
| − | [[Image:Ei_coli-bisi.png|right|thumb|100px|Italian Army as of October 2008.]]
| + | |
| − | At the end of the third month of the [[Colinar]] term, harsh discussion between the Congress and the ''CIC'' himself, caused the irrevocable decision by [[Colinar]] to resign. After a bit of commotion and candidates that refused the position of ''CIC'' ([[vegaicm]] and [[Irian]]), the new President of Italy [[Pericle]] appointed [[bisiacco]] as the new leader of the Italian Army.<br />
| + | |
| − | [[Image:eidelexo.png|left|thumb|100px|Italian Army as of June 2010.]]
| + | |
| − | Thanks to the War Module suspension, [[bisiacco]] worked to increase the efficiency of the Italian Army with the recruiting of new soldiers to replace inactive ones and new methods of buying and stockpiling weapons for the army. This new organizzation was put to test with the resume of the War Module in the V1 with an RW in the only non Italian region at the time: {{ELink|battle|5728|Graubunden}}. After the succesfull test, the Italian Army resumed its operation along with the other [[PEACE GC|PEACE]] armies in the [[World War I]] and [[World War II]] (especially in the latest, helping [[France]] surving the [[ATLANTIS invasion of France|Operation French Toast]] and regaining all the French territories lost to Spain).<br />
| + | |
| − | During this war intense period the [[Italian Army#Military Academy|Military Academy]], an idea of [[Wolf89]], was founded to teach how to perform duty as ''Divisione'' and ''Armata'' commander to volunteer soldiers.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===The Theocratic diaspora and the new reform===
| + | |
| − | During the last two weeks of the [[bisiacco]] leadership, a group of soldiers decided to start a covert-ops to takeover [[South Africa]]. While the reasons behind this act and the afffiliation of this operation with Italy has never been brought to light, the group succesfully takeovered South Africa stealing, in the process, much of its resource and crippling its economy. Back to Italy, the group had been the target of critics from the congress and the government, causing a major wreck in the army partially sedated by the intervention of [[bisiacco]] and its subsequent leave. Still in the eye of the storm, the new ''CIC'' [[vegaicm]] prepared the army for the [[Operation Burning Spirit]] and then wrote an {{eLink|article|719354|article}} announcing his resignations. The new resignation and the recent impeachment of [[Colinar]], made the group, now known as '''Theocracy''', resign from the Italian Army with a public {{eLink|article|719691|article}} and making an annoucement of hostility torwards the italian politics.<br />
| + | |
| − | The Italian Army, now again without a ''CIC'' and a part of their high ranked soldiers, found itself in a status of major wreckage; to fix this, [[Wolf89]] was appointed as new ''CIC''.<br />
| + | |
| − | Having already experience in mananging soldiers as the commander of the ''3rd Armata'', [[Wolf89]] started immediatly to reorganinze the remaining soldiers creating a new armata, the 4th one, to let an easy transition from training grounds to real war action and the utilizzation of a system to declare the state of emergency and readiness of soldiers. He's also reformed the functionalities of the ''2nd Armata'' creating the FIRs, thus giving the soldier of the ''2nd Armata'' the possibility of partecipating in actions outside the national territories. The newly revamped army was tested, with good results, in the {{ELink|battle|5943|Alentejo}} battle in the {{ELink|war|333|Spain - Portugal}} war.

| + | |
| − | [[Image:Ia-dia_opforces.png|right|thumb|300px|Old Italian Army's Command Structure.]]
| + | |
| − | The Italian Army is under the command of the President of Italy. The President appoints a CIC (in italian: ''CdSM'') that helps him with the logistic operations and tactical decisitions. Along with the President and the CIC there is a group of senior officers, called the ''HQ'', that helps the CIC and the other commanding officer with the logistics operations. Under the direct command of the CIC there are the various commanding officer of the operational forces.

| − | ==Operational forces==
| + | |
| − | The '''Operational Forces''' of the '''Italian Army''', are composed by four big groups called ''Armata'' and each of them is divided in multiple ''Brigate''.<br />
| + | |
| − | The number of soldiers in each ''Brigate'' is typically ten comprised of a commander. The name of each ''Brigate'' typically refers to the name of a combat brigade that exist in the real Esercito Italiano (as was proposed by [[Camillo Benso Conte di Cavour]] in May 2008).<br />
| + | |
| − | Each ''Armata'' has a commander and two vice commanders that are in direct contact with the ''CIC'' and is composed by multiple ''Brigate''.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===1st Armata===
| + | |
| − | The '''1st Armata''' contains the strongest soldiers of the Italian Army infact the minimum requirements to be in it is having at least 13 strength and a rank of Colonel. Due to its relevance theyr member are usally on the ready to being deployed whatever the ''CIC'' orders to (mostly outside of Italy).<br />

| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata Corazzata Pinerolo]]
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata bersaglieri Garibaldi]]

| − | ===2nd Armata===
| + | |
| − | The '''2nd Armata''' contains all the soldiers with minimum 7 strength. Its mostly dedicated to the defense on the national territories, altough some of its ''Brigate'' can be employed in missions outside of Italy. Those special ''Brigate'' are called '''FIR''' ("Forze d'Intervento Rapido" aka "Rapid Intervention Forces").<br />
| + | |
| − | Totally there are about 80 to 88 soldiers divided in 4 ''Brigate'':
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata corazzata Ariete]]
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata alpina Taurinense]]
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata Artiglieria Contraerea]]
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata aeromobile Friuli]]
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===3rd Armata===
| + | |
| − | The '''3rd Armata''' contains all the soldiers with minimum 5 strength. It mostly contains defensive units, altough they can be sent outside of Italy. Like the 4th Armata, it fullfills a role of formation, since the soldiers serving there can experience theyr first battles outside the national territories along with other different missions types.<br />
| + | |
| − | There are in total 4 ''Brigate'' with a variable number of soldier in it:
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata cavalleria Savoia]]
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata alpina Julia]]
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata Artiglieria]]
| + | |
| − | * [[Brigata Aviazione d'Esercito]]
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===4th Armata===
| + | |
| − | The '''4th Armata''' contains all the soldiers with strength less than 5. It is a training and defensive Armata, infact when the soldiers become strongers they're sent to the 3rd Armata.<br />
| + | |
| − | There are in total 8 ''Reggimenti'' with a variable number of soldier in it:
| + | |
| − | * [[1° Reggimento AVES Antares]]
| + | |
