This is a GREAT game. However, I miss random battles in random maps (just like CM). Of course, simulating the russian terrain and climate. It would be awesome and could attract many people to Panzer Command. As far as I know (I´m new to Panzer command) at the moment we only can choose a list of maps.

Unfortunately highly detailed 3D maps done on a pixel by pixel basis are not that easy for a random program to make. We don't use tiles to make a map. Maybe someone someday will figure out how to do it.

We don't have a way to generate Random map in PCO. right now you can have the random generator select a random map from a list of maps that have been premade. As more maps are made, they can be incorporated into this random selection and increase the number of random possiblilities.

In addition to this, you can also randomize the orientation of the setups so that for playing purpose, even if you get the same map again, there is a good chance you will be setup in a totally different side of the map or you may be attacking in a totally different direction.

And we're glad you're enjoying the game. As Mad Russian said, we are still working on improving it and we hope to have another Public patch Beta in the next few days.

Since my computer is too old I´m more interested in small maps. Furthermore small maps are the best option to learn. I hope you could add many of them in the future.

I used to play to CM but I didn´t like the campaigns. Panzer Command campaings are far more complete, so I bought it.

There was a small map that was to be made into the Tuturial scenario 3. I may release that if there's an interest. It's a 500 meter map.

Good Hunting.

If there was a large enough demand for the small maps it would be easy to add those pretty quickly. If I was to do them it would have to be in addition to other projects we are already involved with.
