For my 100th post, I would like to announce that WAR OF THE WORLD HAS NOW BEEN RELEASED!
This is of course v1.00 (Dec 2013). There will be a v1.01 done in February 2014 for any fixes that anyone deems necessary between now and then.
Download can be found at

There are 2 files, download them both and then insert the Audio folder into the main War of the World folder, and then put this in the MODS folder. The .pzscn and .pzloc go into the My Games/Panzer Corps/Scenario folder found in "My Documents"
Thought it would be helpful to display a suggested strategy for anyone who may get overwhelmed by everything happening:
AXIS STRATEGY
- Turn 1: Complete conquest of Poland, and then move your tanks to the immediate west of Berlin. Troops will come in 1940 to help you attack France, so there is no point in conquering it early. Continue the gradual grinding down of China. U-Boats should be moved to the Convoy route between Boston and Great Britain
- Turn 2: Keep all Infantry and your Anti-Tank in Poland, possibly conquer the Balkans? The fort in China should be captured.
- 1940: When you get them, move paras to capture Norway, and possibly move an infantry from Poland to capture Oslo while paras take Narvik. Complete conquest of Norway brings in 50pps a turn. The next turn you will get a Pz38 and 2 pioneers. Use these and your tanks from Poland to knock France out. When France falls, invade the UK, and then move all troops to the east. Remember to keep units on the 3 hexes surrounding Hong Kong, otherwise the British may attempt to recruit units there.
- 1941: Launch Barbarossa once Bulgaria joins you. Finland will join later and you can use their armies to harass Leningrad and capture Murmansk. Press on in North Africa, as it is possible to break through Suez and capture Baku from the south. In December you will gain some Japanese SNLFs, use these to occupy the Phillipines and Singapore.
- 1942: Reach and take down Fortress Chelyabinsk. In the Pacific, Australia, India and Hawaii should be your objectives.
- 1943-> : Launch an invasion of the USA from the east and west. Take Vancouver quickly to save yourself from a swarm of Canadians being built. Once this is done, you should win the game.
ALLIED STRATEGY:
- 1939-40: Hold on for dear life and survive the Blitzkrieg in Europe. Reinforcing your Spitfires on Turn 1 can give you a great advantage in the air. The Royal Navy should be able to beat the pulp out of the Scharnhorst and Graf Spee. Once these are gone there is little the Axis can do to threaten the UK. China starts powerful enough to launch an offensive towards Beijing. This is suggested, but do not attack in the south.
- 1941: Germany should attack the USSR and Japan the Pacific. With much reinforcement, Russia should be able to push the Germans back by 1943. Japan is more difficult, but it helps to strike at their navy whenever it shows up. America gets a steady stream of ships following Pearl Harbour.
- 1942: Strike at North Africa by building up some forces near Khartoum. The Axis will probably be too busy trying to capture Suez to guard Tripoli, but be prepard for unexpected resistance.
- 1943: You should have enough Prestige to recapture the East Indies, and chase Germany back to Warsaw. Use this to significantly weaken the Axis. China should have removed Japan from continental Asia, so give them a surprise attack -> maybe invade Honshu or Kyushu? In the west, launch an attack on occupied Norway, as this will bring in more cash.
- 1944: Launch grand offensives across the globe, and you should be able to win by December.
