Panzer Music!

Fans of the old Panzer General series rejoice for the release of Panzer Corps. Following in the footsteps of the popular SSI masterpiece and sharing with the General series the same level of engagement and strategic depth, Panzer Corps will keep an unmistakable "PG feeling" whilst improving and refining the gameplay and balance. Panzer Corps will feature 26 scenarios on 21 unique maps, covering most major battles of the European Theatre of World War II and including a few hypothetical 'what if' scenarios based on your actions. Now expanded with a full-war mega-campaign and the Afrika Corps and Allied Corps releases!

Panzer Music!

Post by Texican »

One thing I liked about the original PG was how the music would come on momentarily, maybe when you moved a piece, then fade after a bit, then come on again, triggered by some action, or at least so it seemed. I think music buffs call this effect "Leit Motif" or something.

Anyway, I think it would be very cool if, when you moved a panzer unit as the Germans, you'd sometimes have this PanzerLied tune turn on (maybe instrumental version):

They should have something like this when you start moving a bunch of armored,motorized, artillery, units at once for an operation:

I always loved this tune from Hearts of Iron II. Kind of a triumphant march tune as your panzers go smashing through Poland.

Well, nah, IMO this is still the best gaming theme (although it has never been in a "Bulge" or Panzer game). But, gets me in the mood to roll panzers into the Low Countries.

We're I designing, I'd, like I said before, make this leit motif where it starts to play through a brief cycle when you move a panzer unit, maybe only every few minutes.
