Description

The game of Panzer Blitz enables you to re-create the drama and furious action of tactical-level armored warfare. Battle-simulations take place on a realistic mapboard which reproduces about twenty square miles of typical Russian terrain. The playing pieces are accurate symbolizations of the platoon and company sized units which fought on the Eastern Front in World War II. More than a dozen different ``scenarios'' are given, each of which allows you to re-create a completely new game-situation in which to exercise your skill as an armor tactician. Prior military knowledge or experience, however, is not needed to play Panzer Blitz—just common sense, clear thinking and a competitive spirit.
