Things to improve on (IMO)

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!

Things to improve on (IMO)

Post by PKH »

There are a couple of things I really dislike in this game, and I think could be improved:

- Campaigns starting with fixed and already placed core units. I would like an option to buy the core units myself for all campaigns. It would add replayability imo.

- Very limited placement of units (i.e. Moscow scenario) in most scenarios. This might be done for historical reasons, but again I'd like an option to place units freely behind the front lines. This would also add replayability imo.

- The lying combat result hints. The high variance on this makes it really frustrating. I have a suggestion to improve on this. Calculate the result once per turn when the player moves the mouse over the enemy unit, and display that as the hint. Use that result for the acutal combat, or add a small variance to it (+/- 1 or 2).

About points 1 and 2, such features are not asked for often, but you can easily have them yourselves if this would improve your playing experience. Thus, if you want a different core, just disband all units you start with, and then give yourselves a prestige bonus (using "prestige" cheat) to buy new core force instead. And if you use the Editor, the possibilities become endless.

As for combat predictions, not all players want them changed, in fact, a lot of people prefer existing situation. See for example: http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29881
