The Competition & Teaser Thread

[Strela]

Sorry if I am asking a question(s) already asked, but I am a Squad Battle guy I am just trying to wrap my mind around this game?

The new graphic terrain looks just like the mobile Panzer Campaigns - Panzer.

The units seem to be the same force sizes.
Example:
7 vehicles (77%)
Morale A
Movement
Fatigue 42

The screen shots do seem to zoom in more than the mobile screens, but please explain in more details to how Panzer Battles is different than Panzer Campaigns - Panzer?

I would guess that the PC will have better graphics, but aren't they basically the same game?

Also, I am guessing that units don't have a facing like in SB?

If so does this mean that units can attack and defend from any direction?

The graphics you have seen in this thread were specifically designed for Panzer Battles (PzB). They have subsequently been used in the mobile version of Panzer Campaigns (PzC) and are being retrofitted into Panzer Campaigns games available from John Tiller's web site.

The Panzer Battle version is better quality as it uses the larger Squad Battles hex layouts as compared to the pixel doubling zoom in Panzer campaigns.

The differences between PzC and PzB is quite significant. Both in terms of rule sets but also in actual 'feel' of the game when played. The variability in units as well as ranged fire have impacts. The play testers are all veterans of PzC and they have had to learn some new ways and dump some old habits. PzC is a Company/Battalion game while PzB is a Platoon/Company game. Squad Battles is a Squad/Platoon/Company game from memory.

There is no facing for units.
