Bersaglieri

Description
Bersaglieri are only available to the Cavalleggeri division and must be unlocked with Command Points before they can be called to the battlefield.

Bersaglieri are motorized infantry noted for their distinctive plumed helmets. Bersaglieri squads cannot be requisitioned independently; instead they are called in together with a Breda 61 halftrack with the Mech Infantry call in at a cost of 600 Manpower and 10 population. Bersaglieri have a versatile set of weapons and are more effective than standard Italian infantry, although they have less morale than the famed Folgore or fanatical Squadristi available to other Italian divisions.

Bersaglieri capture territory at 1.25x the normal rate for infantry, and can also capture from inside the Breda 61 halftrack. This allows them to accompany offensives by tanks and armored vehicles and quickly secure territory.
