Next, and this is the one that really freaked me out - after hitting the end of the turn button, all the planes return to their bases for fuel and ammo. They’ve completely reworked aircraft behavior since PC 1… really throwing a wrench into my props… err, plans.įirst up: they’re all assigned to airbases ( Pro Tip: they can also be rebased later on… whew!). I should’ve known better since this is Panzer Corps 2, not OoB 2. Since I came into this from last playing OoB, when I flew over a target and bombed it I was waiting for that ‘final move’ - where the plane moves one more hex. It’s very different than both PC 1 and OoB.

Aircraftīefore I get too deep into this, I have to mention right now what really caught me off guard: the way aircraft works. After the arty fire from the northeast, and then with Recon help, the guys in the town are going to be pancakes.

This is pure, flat-out (pun intended), squishing dudes. Likewise, if the opponent surrenders or retreats or is located in close terrain, again, no overrun. But, if an AT gun or artillery provides support fire, it cannot complete the overrun. I’ve used it a lot and it’s bad-ass, man. This lets that tank move again (if it did not use up all of its movement points beforehand), then, the best part, the overrun attack does not count as an attack action! So, theoretically, if you have enough movement points and ammo supplies, you can mow down multiple weak enemies, one by one, in a single turn. While using tanks (of course), overrun attacks happen when that armor destroys its target without taking any damage itself. Which brings me to one of the multitudes of new, cool features. However, if you have never played this type of wargame, Panzer Corps 2 is extremely easy to get (steam) rolling into. Obviously, if you have played PC 1, you’ll be able to jump right into Panzer Corps 2. We end the episode answering questions from the fan community.Now, on to the fun. We uncoverd the challenges that were faced during development and future DLC plans. We dived into the history of Panzer Corps, it’s accidental beginnings, and all the way to the recent release of its sequel. In this special interview episode Jean (The Strategy Wargamer) & Eric (TortugaPower) had the incredible opportunity to sit down with the Project Director of the recently released Panzer Corps 2, Alexander Shargin.
