Re: Hey Developers How about $2950

I understand if the developers have moved on and want to focus on other, more "commercial" and "modern", titles than Panzer Corps. After all it's a business to them and not charity. However, if that's the case they should just say come out and say so here on the forum and what th...

Re: What do you think of the "historical" hero units?

Thanks for the feedback guys, much appreciated! @faos333 - I think you are right the more I think about it :). I overrated Lent somewhat. He is probably more of 8/10 imo. I have not experienced what you describe about him needing protection though but I never use him as a Stuka, only Bf 110, Me 410 ...

Re: What do you think of the "historical" hero units?

I understand where you are coming from but what I did not write in my initial post is that my opinion of the usability of these units is of course also related to what difficulty level one is playing on. I usually play on Field Marshal, General or Rommel. If I am playing on Rommel where prestige is ...

What do you think of the "historical" hero units?

The scripted, historical “hero units” you receive in the Grand Campaign are a big part of the GC. Some people like them whereas some might find them too extreme. This is an old but good thread which lists the scripted special units/heroes you receive in the Grand Campaign. See this link: https://www...

Re: Nashorn.

I just finished GC43 again and I agree with the other posters. Nashorn is a quite fun unit which can be effective under the right circumstances but it is let down by the high price and being a magnet for enemy artillery and aircraft. During my last play through I was swimming in prestige so it was f...

Re: Romanian Mnt infantry rated higher than Gerbigsjäger?

Thanks for your feedback! Always interesting to learn from other forum members :).

I think we can conclude they are slightly overrated in the game.

Romanian Mnt infantry rated higher than Gerbigsjäger?

I just started another GC and I am about to start GC42 with Vitebsk. Normally I don't pay much attention to the auxiliary units but for some reason I checked them out today and I was a bit surprised to see the Romanian Mnt infantry (Romanian Mountain Infantry) has a SA rating of 6 compared to Wehrma...

Re: GC43 Oboyan and Oboyan D prestige rewards

Towards the end of GC43E, there are some defensive scenarios, much like Bagration in the base game. I've learned that strategy that works for me is to find an area of the map that is defendable, and pull my units back to there and dig in. Later on, I might send a group round the Soviet forces in an...

Re: Fastest hero

That's very cool. I have received heroes very early also in GC45, after a small number of kills, but never as early as you did in February '43! That's very interesting and not something I thought was possible. A unit's first hero in the GC is awarded between 100-300 kills but at some stage in the fi...

Re: Is it worthwhile to upgrade Wurfrahmens to Panzerwerfers?

Combining the SA drop with the increased number of attacks means the Panzerwerfer will do about 85% of the damage that a Wurfrahmen will do over the course of a scenario. Is there some hidden benefit I'm not seeing that makes this upgrade more worthwhile? Is the defence boost actually a lot more im...

Sometimes the best move is to do nothing. This is a great summary in a single sentence but I would rephrase it to "Sometimes the best move is to resupply" but I think that's what you meant :D . Especially for the scenarios where you get turns of poor weather due to rain, snow etc it is go...

Agreed. I have never given the enemy's prestige any thought. It is enough to focus on your own strategy, tactics and prestige management.

Re: Do I need more Sturmpanzer in GC42

I had to learn the hard way the importance of artillery when I first started out playing the game. I think not having and fielding enough artillery units is one of the most common mistakes new players make. Personally I like to have 12-14 artillery units as well as 2 strategic bombers in my core. I ...

Re: Missing Rondorf after Smolensk

Now I definitely have to restart from Ostrov.. Although I will shell out for a Pz IV for him. I like giving him a Panzer II Flamm and then keeping him in that until I upgrade him to Tiger I (since he has a +1 MOV rating) usually around the start of GC43. He will get loads of kills in Panzer II Flam...

Re: Why do you still stick with the OG Panzer Corps?

PC1 remastered can invest more on the loot system thus make PC1 great again. Like set bonus (range + spot=+1 ammo bonus see better shoot better save ammo. This makes all those bad heroes good if you are lucky.), legendary drops (instead of prescript, would it be amazing if any of your units can gri...

On the PC (laptop or desktop) there is only the fixed standard view (which changes with resolution, of course) and a zoomed out view which shows the whole map for the scenario (handy for getting an overview). I have a 17 inch HD laptop and my 22 inch HD monitor for my desktop and the standard view ...

Re: iPad PzC to be Delisted from App Store

Their answer was that they don’t want to do any business with apple, and that if they had sent them an email they probably had not even bothered to open it. I think it’s a very disappointing answer because they ARE doing business with apple, as I suppose they are not rejecting their payments. Takin...
