    Do not buy this game if you are familliar with Panzer General series. This game is not nearly is interesting as Panzer General. It lacks many features, for example you cannot postpone action of the unit within the same turn. Like moving infantry first, then moving artillery, firing artillery, then attacking with infantry you moved first place. And feature of Panzer General 3D called "suppression" is priceless. Again I've thrown my money away when I bought BitComposer title. Never again.

    Pros: 1. Simple but good graphics. Graphically the best Panzer General Clone in the market 2. Long single player campaign. I think it take you more than 30 hours to compelete it 3. More accesible to casual gamers than Panzer Corps Cons: 1. No multiplayer 2. No additional single player scenarios 3. No adjustable difficulty level. Actually there are three campaigns there (Germans, USSR,Allies), that ascend from easy to hard If you like this genre, there are few new game right noe in the market,…

    totally subpar WW2 strategy This is a port of an old Nintendo DS game. Back in the pre-smartphone days of 2007, if you wanted to conquer Poland during your commute (and who doesn't?) this mediocre Panzer General clone was your only choice. I played through the whole DS version, and although I enjoyed it, I also became very familiar with the game's GLARING flaws - a very passive AI, silly power-ups (magic forcefields!), useless tank destroyers, etc. I haven't played this port long enough to…

    In 1939, German troops attacked Poland and plunged Europe into the Second World War. Experience intense battles in three extensive campaigns. More than 150 units and countless tactical options offer hours of fun. Relive the offensive of the German troops, the Soviet counter-attack and the liberation of Europe by the Allied Forces across three campaigns. Panzer Tactics originally launched in North America on November 7, 2007 and in the rest of the world on the following year on February 15,…

    I have been now playing this game for 6 hours straight on the German missions. I have a ton of xp playing the panzer general series, commando and hearts of iron so I know this kind of game and you are getting a decent game here. There are some cool things in this game like the commando units and the leadership attachments. The visuals are great and there are no cut scenes that slow the game down or distract you. And for what your paying for your are getting a deal I think. There's only a…

    Good game,but too simply in comparison with Panzer corps or the old Dos based Panzer General series. The different types of the units arent useful because the only different because of them is that the modern ones better in all way (except price)the older one. So u will always use the moderner types of the units. The missions have also not really challenge cos there are only a few missions in all campaign and the missions are linear,there is not difference if u win or lose (if lose game is…

    Just wanted to say thanks to the devs for this game. I was a huge Panzer General fan, back when 32MB of RAM were op and a good computer had 133Mhz. Sadly, I didnt knew this game existed until I saw a random video on youtube about it. Instantly got it and its great. I had to try the 2nd mission 4 times in order to get *** and the secondary objective. Havent played challenging game in a while so this was a great change. Yeah, there are annoying things in the game, like having to confirm each…

    If you are impatient here is the short version. This game is easily the best turn based strategy war game I have ever played in my life. For only 11 bucks I have already had over 23 hours of enjoyment and probably have about another 40-50 to go before i ace all the missions in the 3 campaigns. The game looks and sounds great, it rewards strategic thinking and tactical planning, it is fun, the logic of the game is based on real life so it makes sense (units run out of fuel, ammo, tanks are at a…

    On sale, I recommend it. I think I paid $15 and the German campaign alone was worth it. It requires much more smarts than Panzer Corp, for sure. The only problem for me is the Russsian campaign was simply too tough for me. And without cheats, I had to give the game up. Skill-wise, I am probably a "4" out of "10" and I'm sure some people completed the whole game. But the time I did put into it was thoroughly enjoyable and challenging. I now hereby beg the developers for an unlock so I can…

    With over 150 different units to play with, plenty of maps to strategize on, and a level of difficulty in tactics needed to not let you walk all over this game, Panzer Tactics HD definitely has a lot going for it. It’s fun and all, but it is not an easy game. You’ll actually have to do some thinking here. I say that less to scare and more to prepare. I’m decent at planning things out when I have less choices so this game will take some major getting used to. However, it’s not going to be one…

    pros: - well... it's a nice copy of Panzer General cons: - unrealistic unit ressuply / reinforcements (you can't in the same round reinforce and resupply unit) - faulty interface when it comes to shooting and moving unit (you can move and shoot, but can't shoot and then move) - completely ridiculous time limits that force you to push forward at high speed even if it has no meaning to the battle - time limits that don't allow you to choose how you want to deal with this battle, it's all only…

I play this game, or whatever remake they have of it, every 5 years becuase it's the only game that still bends my mind. Please message me if you know something as smart as this.

    Not a terrible game but feels like a simple port. I think if you had not played the Panzer Corp or Order of Battle games then this game would appeal more. Having played both of those games, Panzer Tactics feels pretty simplistic and shallow to me. Pros: - Nice polish and presentation - Has a reasonable amount of depth when it comes to unit stats and terrain impact Cons: - Map sizes feel small - Unrealistic unit balance creates problems with the gameplay - The art style while polished has an…

    Entertaining and well polished game. If you're new to this kind of game it's probably your best bet on the steam store. If you're used to more advanced strategy games like Panzer General and its clones, you will feel like the game lacks many features and your freedom of movement is limited. The AI is very passive and most missions are repetitive in the sense that you are always on the attacker side and never get to experience an offensive AI. Sadly the game doesn't feature a multiplayer mode…

    Reviewing Panzer Tactics HD great strategy game, not as simple mechanics as other revieuwers state, you can realy come up with nice combined air land and naval tactics to conquer the enemy cities , multiplayer would be perfect for this game hope they implement it in the next update, would be fun to kick some armchair generals asses again like in the good old closecombat days. ;) I give it 8/10

    I played the original version of this game on Nintendo DS and was very pleased to find an HD remake for PC. I found gameplay much easier with keyboard and mouse. As a fan of strategy games and the WW2 genre in general, this game satisfies both quite well. Although more hardcore players may find the it simpler than other similar games, I believe the challenge is still there, especially for less experienced players. If anything, it serves as a nice introduction to this style of game.

    If you liked the "Panzer General" games, you will probably like this one too. It misses some of the features of the original, but it is easy to use and near enough to the original that I have fun. If you never played "Panzer General": This is a turn based game where you move units of the 2nd World War. You move and attack. Recon units let you see the enemy, artillery let you attack them from far, bombers let you reduce them to waste, fighters protect your bombers, Anti-Air is possible too,…

As a matter of fact, I found out about this game just a week before it was released when I randomly had a craving for Panzer Tactics. Pros - WW2 setting for those who like it Good range of units Challenging maps Cons - Some units feel badly restrained into roles, such as fighter-bombers being unable to engage enemy aircraft UI is made for touch device, you…

    This is a mobile (iPad) ported hex based strategy game set in ww2 with an armoured warfare theme. Tap on your screen to move tanks around a turn based strategy hex map. Mobile ports don't belong on Steam and this is a classic example. Everything is massively dumbed down to cater to mobile peasants. On a technical basis, resolution and controls are fixed, there's no real settings to customise at all. This is unacceptable for a PC game. Once more we see greedy mobile devs trying to screw…

    I purchased this game on sale for $2.49, expecting Panzer General-lite. That is about what this game is. All-in-all, it was fun, and had a number of difficult missions that made it easily worth what I paid and more. The one major flaw with the game is that it auto-upgrades the core army between missions. Maybe I wanted those experienced pioneers for their mobility and bunker busting? Also, by the time you have the three expensive generals, there is nothing to use your Fame on, especially as…

After Panzer Tactics 3D and Scorched Earth it was about time to appear a new game of this all time classic franchise, Strongly recommended for those they like single player action and they are not impressed only by games which need high end graphic cards in order to play them.

    This is an excellent turn based strategy game where you really need to think about what counters what and what might be lurking in the fog of war. If you like strategy games, but are not fast enough for an RTS this could be the game for you. In addition to this the battles are historical battles from World War II so either you learn some history, or play battles you know all to well.

The Campaign mode chronologically recreates actual battles from the war, tasking players with commanding historic conflicts.

    They really didn't change any of the controls when they decided to bring this to PC. The whole UI is still designed for a DS. There's little reason to play this > Panzer Corps. This is inferior in every single way. There's nothing new, or different here. This is like playing a mobile equivalent of the same game, but with a fraction of the features and content. With the DS UI, every action takes so tediously long to do that, if you make one mistake by deployment, you may spend 15-30 minutes…

    Cheap and stupid - Ships are clearly overpowered, if a destroyer can wipe out an infantry unit, there's something wrong with this - Tanks are underpowered: encircled infantry units attacked by tanks at the beginning of the war stood no chance - UI is not intuitive, moving, attacking causes a lot of mistakes - There is no attacks in the back or encirlements - As in many games, air units linger in the air and do not really depend on having an airfield nearby. This is not how it works but then…

It may lack fancy animations but for those who like strategic turn-based playing it is a very good choice.

    One of my favorite turn-based strategies. There isn't a whole lot of replay value, since once you beat a campaign level you know how you should approach it in later attempts and since the AI is fairly consistent in its playstyle. Nice if you just want a strategy challenge for an hour or so.
