DESIGN NOTES FOR PANZERBLITZ: HILL OF DEATH By Alan R. Arvold
Back in 2009, the wargame “Panzerblitz: Hill of Death” was published and released to the public. Advertised as the direct next generation descendent of the original Panzerblitz
it was in reality a very distant descendent as many generations of tactical armored warfare games had come and gone in the 39 years between the release of both games.
Having played the game I found that it did have some of the flavor of the original game, but it was updated with more advanced game mechanics that have evolved over the past forty years. Still it was a nice experience and almost immediately I started converting it to the Talonsoft Campaign Series of computer games. One would wonder, shouldn’t this be Panzer Leader as the scenarios in the game occur in the Western Front as Panzerblitz deals with scenarios on the Eastern Front. Well normally yes but the new publisher, Multi-Man Publishing, has decided to use the name Panzerblitz for both fronts, plus any new ones that they may get into in future releases. Never-the–less since the scenarios in the new game occur on the Western Front, I must convert them to West Front game.
NOTE: This scenario set also includes the Panzerblitz Carentan set of scenarios.
