Panzer Corps 2 Axis Operations 1939 Player AAR Preview

Post by AlbertoC »

With the second Panzer Corps DLC coming soon, we have a special preview from one of our beta testers to share with you: a detailed play by play of the very unusual and unique Czechoslovakia scenario that starts the campaign.

Because this is such an unorthodox scenario, this AAR preview also serves as a de facto guide to finishing the scenario as quickly and easily as possible while also satisfying the main bonus objective. So consider this a major spoiler warning!

Thanks to our Beta tester Monkspider for providing the following AAR:

Wow !

THANKS A LOT !! :D

I was a bit worried about Czechoslovakia ....

I'm ... pretty sure ... I understand the mechanics ... of forcing an enemy unit to retreat ... without completely destroying it. ----

---- Except that --- unless I'm trying to capture some Trubia tanks to pad my stockpile --- my usual motto is , " KILL THEM ALL , and let God sort them out. " :mrgreen:

But , of course , in Czechoslovakia , the narrative is ; " Restoring Germans and their settled territories to the Reich , otherwise ; Let's be friends ! " :D

---

I was happy to see , by the way , that I'll be seeing my old adjutant from my time in Spain. :cry: :D

I wonder if we will ever see that General dude again , the veteran of Sedan ? I miss him sometimes. :?:

--- And we get the Blue Division , " for free " ? !!

Happy days are here again ! :D

Not the whole Blue Division, definitely not this early into WW2. Their appearance at this point is just a very nice gift for the player to play with an extra infantry unit type.

Their true historical appearance belongs in Barbarossa.

To me , to see any Spaniards ( on my side ) is a welcome sight. Viva Franco ! Viva Falange ! Viva Espania ! :mrgreen:

I'm hoping likewise to stretch out my use of the Trubia tank for just a little longer. I'm gonna be sad when I finally have to retire it......

That raises a question ; The Verdeja tank , of course , was not replenished out of captured stockpiles , and nor could you buy it , but acquired it , and replenished it , solely through a commendation point event.

If you have the Verdeja tank , will you be able to field it through at least this next round of campaigns ?

( I assume , of course , that after Poland the Verdeja and the Trubia will be getting rather dated , And most folks will replace them voluntarily anyway.

Not to mention that presumably Czech and French hardware starts coming into the pipeline around this time for us to to play with. :D )

You can keep Verdeja through '40, after that German tanks get better.
Pz3G has similar specs, but takes more slots.
There comes a time on every project when it is time to shoot the engineer and ship the damn thing.
