   Panzer is a turn based war game covering the eastern front . Germans vs Soviets. The strength of the GMT Panzer series of games is in the rule book and instructional materials. The game can be played in a basic format or with additional rules that add complexity and depth to the game. At its basic level it’s quite entertaining and even beginners can complete a scenario in a couple of hours once the game mechanics are understood. After that the advanced rules add nuance and flavor at the expense of additional time. We’re having a great time with this one.
   The quality of materials is excellent. The counters are clear and legible the player aids useful and the maps clear and attractive (although not mounted)

   Been gaming for many years, Really move the Panzer Rules, you can go Basic, to Advance to Option rules, as detailed as you want of as basic as you want. I find others system Tank vs Tank warfare simple, Fire hit, dead, not dead with no thought on hit location or armor type. The Down side to the game is get the modules, which are no longer in print. The Counters are easy to read, the Game designer also put out a guide to help with play and there are hundreds of videos out on the web

   I liked everything about the game! I am a BIG Advanced Squad Leader fan/player and wanted a simpler game to play either by my self or with others that may not be familiar with ASL, to get them into board gaming. I am going to get ALL the expansions for this game in the next month or two. I Love this game, sequence of play and granularity of detail all make very logical sense. The game series is VERY easy to pick up and learn. HIGHLY recommended!!!

   have the original panzer, 88 and armor. bought the 2nd version produce. A vast improvement over the 2nd edition easier to play and faster. the only thing i can complain about is the amount of the starting vechile cards, but overall, that is not a big problem with the ability to add more box set later.

   This is the classic WWII armor combat game.

   The rule system is fairly easy to learn, but the game is tough to master. The rules use a step approach which makes them easy to pick up. You can add complication as you go along. The charts for the game are well laid out and easy to read – although there are a bunch of them.

   The component quality is first rate, however the maps are paper. If I have one complaint about the game is that the maps are not mounted – which I think is reasonable considering the cost of the game.

   GMT has great game support on their website and there are several fan based websites out there as well.

   Map sheet is a little flimsy I prefer a mounted map. Scenarios you can pick from. The counters are nice. The rules are manageable.

   Great production value, looks excellent but not a whole lot of excitement generated by all the die rolls.
