IABSM with the "In the Footsteps of Legions" supplement, or better yet, the tailor-made "Grabbing Mussolini's Baubles" in the 2006 Summer Special.

Good links from Allen – I've not tried IABSM yet but probably should. I've been using Warhammer Historical's Great War rules (with 28mm and some tinkering, e.g. new tank damage tables for CV35s to allow for the Ethiopians turning them over, pulling off the tracks etc…), but I'm looking at other rules sets as well.

Triumph and Tragedy (see Empress Minis on the News Page today) also looks like a possible goer.

Price Of Glory by Iron Ivan Games would work and their Mare Nostrum .pdf has all the vehicles and Army lists for both sides of the war. Fun stuff, might get into it someday….

Thank you for the links guys. I will check these rules.
Also any suggestions on where to find the Fiat 3000 tanks in 20mm?

I think Cromwell make a kit of Fiat 3000 in 1/76th.

You could also use an FT-17. The Fiat 3000 is very close in appearance, and the distinctions are minor enough that it would probably do as is.
