I was waiting for new PzC DLC releases but has been way too long. Any recommendations for replacement turn-based tactical\strategic gaming? I have War in the Pacific: Admiral's Edition but that's way too complicated for my tastes right now. Could be any era, but recently have had a hankerying for sci-fi empire building. Any thoughts? Thanks!

I can really recommend Lock 'n Load: Heroes of Stalingrad

The ruleset really comes to life in the computer version of the game, since it keeps track of all the modifiers for you. And stacking counters is a breeze when the computer does the administration for you

Graphics stay true to the boardgame. Simple yet beautiful and pleasant to look at. Amazing soundtrack too!
Good number of options to tune the game pace / dice rolling to your liking.

My only gripe is that noone seems to be playing it online, but online play is still a possibility if you ever find anyone. Oh well, the AI is keeping me busy!
