Looking for Tank on Tank game - Richie61 - 03-13-2012 I am looking for a tank vs tank game. My kids like armor battles  I know of the PanzerBlitz series already. Panzer looks neat: http://www.gmtgames.com/p-323-panzer.aspx Eastern Front Tank Leader (1986) is being re-released 2012 or so. ![[Image: tank%20leader%20eastern%20frontsmall.jpg]](http://www.sircollectalot.co.uk/images/uploads/tank%20leader%20eastern%20frontsmall.jpg) My kids (and me) like tank on tanks, not a counter that is 5 tanks. Any ideas? RE: Looking for Tank on Tank game - Ricky B - 03-13-2012 I need to dig through my old collection. I have a game that was quite low level, but used generic tank counters to represent tanks from any era. It was quite neat, being able to fight battles over such a wide range of timeframes, although I probably got it back in 1980 or so, so not the most modern battles. It is buried in my basement however - it may have simply been called Tanks, but I can't remember now.

We like WWII (Eastern Front) battles, but anything goes! I should dig thru my basement & pull out my mirco armor. WWII & late 80's. It's all painted up & ready to go. RE: Looking for Tank on Tank game - tallin - 03-13-2012 IIRC, the old AH Tobruk has a fairly detailed Tank v Tank battle system.

That was my very first war game I ever bought! I loved that game till I let my Mothers friends sons try it out. Damn kid sold my game to buyweed :angry1: I should look into it again. My only dislike is the NATO style counters for the infantry. I like "tiny" people on my counters  RE: Looking for Tank on Tank game - Richie61 - 03-14-2012 So, I just scored this for $11.25 Tobruk: Tank Battles in North Africa: 1942 Complete opened but unpunched counters. 
RE: Looking for Tank on Tank game - Compass Rose - 03-14-2012 Nice Find! RE: Looking for Tank on Tank game - gabeeg - 03-15-2012 Lock N' load has "Tank on Tank" ...I have not played it, but it has gotten good reviews...it is more lighter fare from what I understand but a fun system (with expansions upcoming): http://www.locknloadgame.com/Section_Cat_Content_Detail.asp?SID=33&SCAT=88&ID=103 RE: Looking for Tank on Tank game - Richie61 - 03-15-2012 I was looking at that one too. I never played it, but it kind of looks like PanzerBlitz/ Leader The review looks nice too. RE: Looking for Tank on Tank game - Richie61 - 03-15-2012 I need to be locked up! I just picked this up for $22.50. ![[Image: 31s9D38YwmL._SL500_AA300_.jpg]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31s9D38YwmL._SL500_AA300_.jpg) Every other copy I have seen is going for around $60 or higher I almost picked up a brand new still sealed copy of "Conflict of Heroes-Storms of Steel", but lost in the last 10 seconds. It went for $40.00! |
