Firstly; Thanks to Slitherine for the opportunity to test Panzer Corps...
I was impressed with the ability to fire with several units then move..great, makes it more tactical.
Found it a step up from Panzer General which was great.
A bit hard to sort which units were part of my core units or special for the map.
Have played a few games so far of the tutorial and the settings and layout are quite logical.
Fond it a bit confusing when you can use air power or not.
Have found the difficulty even on normal quite steep and rather frustrating, have managed to get to France but finding core units getting trashed....
I like the recon units but it’s hard to have enough points to get to many to be really useful.
Have found the game stable so far, I’m more unstable when my artillery or Para’s run out of supplies good to have limits but some are a little short purhapes...
Interesting to have rail guns...
I’m not sure if direction of attach effects the combat but is would help if it does as both Arty & AT don’t work with attaches on the flanks or behind, principle methods of getting round defences.

Keep up the good work

Great game!

The game is very good and I have had a time or two with some of the scenarios. Norway just about did me in a couple times. This is one of the best games of its kind ie pz general, out there. I will get more into it as I get more time to really play the thing. But, it is a likeable game and bound to hit wargamers in a warm spot.

I agree with Testman on all his points.
