I don't think the game collapse only for the presence of Italy in the NATO.

If we read the 2nd Edition timeline, the only important think that Italian Armed Forces did was to cross Tyrol and launch an offensive who took them until Munich. In my opinion this is quite impossible considering the logistical difficulties in invading a region like Austria before and then Southern Germany. Italian Army was more incisive on the defense and the northern sector was a real defensive position so why spend troops for a futile "blitzkrieg à l'italienne"? I think this was just a quick solution by the writers to bring more countries in the cauldrun on european front.

The alignment of Italy with Warsaw Pact is simply laughable but not for Greece, according to the political situation of that country.

We have also to rememberg that since the end of 80s the italian Partito Comunista was in crisis and on 1994 there was the affirmation of several right-wing parties pro-USA and pro-NATO.
