Panzer Tactics goes commando


Aside from its support for online multiplayer matches, one of the features that really make Panzer Tactics stand out to us when comparing it to other turn-based strategy titles (e.g. Advance Wars) is its employment of Commandos and Officers. Commandos essentially act as stealth operatives, sneaking into enemy territory and acting as an unseen nuisance to your opponent, whereas Officers improve the attributes of the troop they're assigned to and increase morale for surrounding allies.

The above three-and-a-half minute video, Panzer Tactics' third episode in its "Producer in a Box" video series, further explains the capabilities of these Commando and Officer units. Move your army to the hex cell after the post break to watch the two previous "Producer in a Box" movies. You can also study the fifteen new screenshots we've added to our Panzer Tactics image gallery.

aboot ^^

haha no really, this looks great! i've always been an avid advance war fan, finished the first game twice, spent endless hours playing war room, second game ditto, and had some good times with Dual Strike. But I think the AW franchise has had it's best day, and I'm not that keen on the new iteration coming.
Panzer Tactics however looks brilliant! It has similar aspects but just that extra layer of depth... I ADORE turn based tactics games, and this is looking to become a favorite!

I want! I want!
