Cool card but I do not think the MVSN can be used for the game

What is MVSN?

[strange sparrow]

Milizia Volontaria per la Sicurezza Nazionale, AKA Blackshirts

[lethal beacon]

still, quite a cool art

shame it cannot be used

the Italian SS, basically

[normal grail]

wasnt the SS an elite force

like the blackshirts were gangsters or mob guys that did the things the fascist order asked them for

[lethal beacon]

as far as I know, the SS were just the proper national police for Germany, the equivalent to the black shirts were the SA or "Sturmabteilung"

but in contrast, the blackshirts stayed with the fascist government until its fall, while the SA was replaced for political interests and conflicts.

no they were political soldiers

the SS were the armed wing of the Nazi party

the MVSN fulfilled a similar role

[spark scaffold]

the police force for Germany in WW2 was the Orpo

[lethal beacon]

oh, my bad

thought it was the same thing/organization

[spark scaffold]

also as far as being "elite", the SS on average weren't really anything special

in fact recent studies place the average SS soldier as performing worse than their Wehrmacht counterpart

what they got was preferential treatment and often times priority when it came to receiving equipment as they were basically Hitler's personal attack dogs

each SS soldier was also more or less a committed nazi and was far more willing to throw themselves into situations out of ideological fervor

that also means they were committing a lot of atrocities, and many units had a personal hand in ethnic cleansing operations
