One caution about prestige is that the more stars your unit has, the harder the next one is to get. So, while it may be easy to "max out" your units during the '39 & '40 campaigns, it gets progressively more and more difficult. This is fairly easy to see. When you first purchase or ot...

I only know Eastern strategy and even that is a learning curve for me. A lot of questions so little time. 1939 cap is 225 When a unit gets close to 200 or get's it's first hero substitute it out for a green unit. (Your super heroes such as Oleh Dir and Albert Kerscher once they get 100 exp substitu...

I am playing the vanilla after realizing that there were a number of mechanics I was unsure of and that was leading to prestige loss. So far it is going ok, but I am still having a little trouble with my pace. I either conquer quickly but take tons of damage or just make the cut with fewer losses. T...

Each campaign year has an experience cap. You receive this information at the beginning of the campaign. But how do you know a specific unit has maxed out? You need to know the max figure for that part of the GC. During a scenario right click on the unit and you can find its current experience. Dur...

If you sell/disband a unit do it between scenarios and make sure to give it reg replacements so you get full money as you get nothing for experience when you sell it. DO NOT KEEP +1 Spotting AA or artillery. They are worthless and heros are so rare. good idea on the replacements I would probably fo...

Each campaign year has an experience cap. You receive this information at the beginning of the campaign. But how do you know a specific unit has maxed out? Yes, you have to disband the entire unit. I do this when an artillery unit's first hero is a spotting hero. Because heroes are based on kills, ...

West since you will have most of your prestige stolen and many of your units taken away with I think the first scenario in the West, I still have not played it but at least know that much, you want to build up an elite core force of some 13 to 17 units, I am unsure of the number as again I have not...

Yes, this game is like a game of chess, only that you have quite a big board (with different field types) a huge variety of pieces. Take your time and plan carefully. Also, defense is (usually) easier. Try to use this to your advantage and lure the enemy to attack your bait-unit only to be surprise...

Some basic rules: 1. Pay attention to the terrain types. Right now I think this is my biggest oversight. either that or not checking how an enemy will move or why it attacks. 2. Protect your support units. learned this the hard way. Again, still has something to do with not doing my homework on ene...

Yeah I played them. I got DVs on them. I just learned some things watching Braccada's Sealion Let's Play Video. I think my major problem is not taking my time. He did something that made me face palm. He looked at an enemy units Movement to determine where to put his unit. Not necessarily something ...

ok so after a depressing weekend of getting my tail feathers burned off, I had a few more questions. One has been answered. Don't do GC till I have a better feel for the game. I find getting marginal victories in GC is easy, but DVs while keeping prestige is outside my abilities for now. 1) I am hav...

I will probably give a GC a try this weekend. Will keep your play through nearby for notes. I never played PG and only had two nights with PC so still kinda getting my head around it. I have a lot of *duh* and *wish I knew that earlier* moments. I was playing one scenario where I had to land troops ...

#2 I started learning on Colonel in the 1939 vanilla campaign. I think part of my problem is elite replacement so far. I am using that exclusively and by the time I got to the first west scenario I couldn't really field enough units. Some of that will also be because I am still learning what are the...

1) I have read a few posts and members are stating they have an INF unit but they call it SE INF...what is SE? 2) I am having trouble maintaining my prestige...should I be doing normal replacement (no prestige loss but exp loss) during battle or expert replacement (retains exp but costs prestige)? 3...

New to the series.

I have to ask. What does SE stand for?

To address the problems a few individuals who have had issues with the combat pacing of Panzer Corps, we have come up with a temporarily solution. Step 1: Open the directory where you installed Panzer Corps. For example, mine is: C:\Games\Panzer Corps\Graphics Step 2: Rename "efx.pzdat" t...
