Imagine a Assasins creed based in WW1 when you play as an ancestor that served in the Arditi

Why am I suddenly getting so many videos covering Italian knife fighting?? Algorithm, I get that I'm big into Kali and Silat, and I get that I'm a knifesmith as well, but can you just tell me what your intention is rather than springing it on me? This kind of subject mterial, you'd find me a lot more agreeable than the usual trash you try to push on me.

World War One was a horrific war. The tactics that were used are very interesting to study and at this point in time the idea of having soldiers attack with melee weapons would have seemed archaic, but here it was somewhat effective. Also when it comes to WWI people usually talk about the Germans fighting the French and British at the Western Front, so a video about the Italians fighting the Austro-Hungarians is refreshing.

ww1: attack the trenches with a knife ww2: attack the british tank with grenades, attack the russians with horses and attack the british ships with human torpedoes. and the absurd thing is that it worked
