Even after gold has run out, they have strong skirms and hussars. Of course halbierdier is lacking but I would view italians as a strong team civ much like the vietnamese. When paired with the vietnamese or berbers they can produce amazing skirms and genitours in trash wars. Not to mention italians get insane trade production with their tech and on water maps they can produce cheap trade cogs. I would say trash wars can actually go into the italians favour considering they can use spare gold to produce more genoese to counter the hussars since there is no halbs.
