It would be nice if we would able to choose not only a year in random scenarios and multiplayer, but also a terrain type for a random maps. For example, if I want to play Britain vs Italy game in the desert during 41-42 years, game generate only European terrain for a random scenarios, but not the desert. Same with the winter maps. So it would be nice to have an option to change the type of terrain.

We have created an experimental page for Panzer Corps 2 where players can post ideas of what to include in the new game, discuss them and vote for them. The more votes an idea gets, the higher its chance to be implemented in the game.

http://flashback.games/panzer-corps-2-ideas/

Let us know if you experience any problems with this page.
I haven't been able to post new ideas or comment on existing ideas. Are we still supposed to use this page for new ideas, or should we just post them in this thread?

I can vote on existing ideas, but there seems to be about a 24 hour delay before the vote count is changed.

If you are looking for ideas for future Commendation Rewards I stumbled across a very interesting German prototype the other day, the Heuschrecke 10.
The interesting thing about this turreted SPG is that it was designed to be able to remove it's turret, which could then be deployed as a pillbox or towed as an Artillery piece while the turretless chassis could then be used as an ammunition carrier or for other logistical purposes.
Design phase began in 1942 and it had 3 prototypes built in 1943, and was scheduled to start production in Feb 1945. However, it was canceled in Feb 1943 when it was decided that production of the Heuschrecke would disrupt needed Panzer production.
One of the prototypes survived the war, and currently resides at the Fort Sill Field Artillery Museum in Oklahoma, USA.

"Heuschrecke 10":

"I have Depth! "... "I have Range! "... i find that the"... "Heuschrecke 10. is some-what 'Strange?'... however!!!... i'd say that this was a great-idea or concept for an Army on the defensive!.

The most "Game-Implementation" probability for this multi-use-apparatus... would not likely not be in such a Game as 'PzCr-2'... but could readily be used or utilized for an 'Alternate-Historical' endeavor... where anything can happen!.

That's my take on it anyway.

hi guys i would like the heros generation system to be changed. i don't expecially like that u have an hero guaranteed every mission. I don't know exactly hot to change it: maybe trough commandation points (?) or fullfilling special mission (?) or gaining any special targets.

to be honest i preferred more pzc1 method based on experience .. would do you think?

What I did not enjoy about PzC1 hero rules was that not only you could not reassign them, the fact they were randomly rolled for each unit caused some truly useless combinations like spotting increase on artillery...

I could argue for linking the number of heroes possible to assign with the amount of experience, but this would undermine the existing traits, unless like with the various challenge modes and the option to turn heroes off, there would be an alternative system linked with experience. But honestly, we already have something like this in place - it's the medals/awards system that gives bonuses to units for kills, surviving and support fire.

Idea: more aircraft carrier classes for the United States. There was only one Ranger-class carrier (USS Ranger, naturally), but the Essex-class were the most numerous large carriers of World War II.

mmmmh .... i see yuor point, and yes i agree that the possibility to move heroes from one unit to another is a great feature .... than what we may suggest? maybe relate heroes to accomplish special task or reching special target?

Just a small thing but with the amount of heroes we have now would it be possible to list them alphabetically by their traits.

Find myself constantly moving and swapping heroes and it's becoming quite hard to keep track of how many of each I have..

I know that i´m pretty late with ideas, ....but this one keeps up in my mind:

I remember in Panzer Generel you had the possibility to do a strategic bombing of a city, unimportant if there is an enemy unit, with the goal to make it neutral(white Flag) or by bombing a main objectiv city(not possible making it neutral) destroying enemy prestige.
I still think this would be pretty cool, giving an importance to the Air supremacy!!

And on the otherwise,....the strategic bomber are still a little bit underrated.

I hope someone like that idea too??

I would use the Flashback website, but it seems to be acting up again. How about creating a new unit trait for destroyers?

Depth Charge > + 5 attack against submarines

Also, what does the City Fighter trait do? I don't see any change in combat stats when using this trait.

Unit operation history chart

In PC1 and in OOB, every single scenario, where the unit was in use, was displayed at the unit operation history chart.

It would be nice, that PC2 not only shows the first but also all scenarios, where the unit was used at the operation history chart.


Unit reanimation

In OOB, destroyed units could be reanimated - that means name and parts of the experience + all information about the unit's career was retained
and was written in the units' mission history. That means, the unit was destroyed that day but was re-established on another day.

maybe it would be nice to add scenario ribbons to unit: a unit may get a ribbon for every scenario or at last nation in which i fought
