The player's pieces are carried between scenarios: optimizing what is effective in one scenario (say aircraft) may lead to problems in a subsequent scenario where what is effective differs. Again, if the player attains victories in the east and defeats the Soviet Union, Germany can invade the United States from the Port of Savannah and then march to Oak Ridge, Tennessee to capture a prototype of a US atomic bomb. For example, Germany can invade and capture the British Isles by capturing Windsor or they can invade Malta with Italy. The standard game contains many real-life scenarios however, similarly to other games of the series, players will be able to play some hypothetical scenarios if they perform exceptionally in their command career.
#PANZER GENERAL 3D DEMO UPGRADE#
The in-game currency used to measure unit buy and upgrade costs is called "prestige." It is gained by capturing scenario objectives or as a reward for a quick and decisive victory. When attaining a higher level, the unit may also receive a famous leader, granting it some special abilities. Each 100 experience points correspond to one experience level (a value ranging from 0 to 5). When attacking or defending, the unit receives experience points based on the amount of damage inflicted to its enemy (also some points are received when damage is caused by the enemy). The final value, health, is represented by a number, usually 1 to 10. Each unit is assigned a numerical value to represent its movement (in hexes) its line of sight (in hexes) its attack abilities against armored targets, unarmored targets, ships, and airplanes its defense against ranged, close, and air attacks as well as values for initiative and remaining ammunition and fuel. There are eight types of units, each with different properties: Infantry, Tank, Anti-Tank, Recon, Air Defense, Fighter, Artillery, and Bomber. The player attacks enemies and captures hexes by moving units, which approximately represent a battalion, regiment or squadron. The objective is to defeat an enemy by capturing all of their victory hexes in a specified number of turns. The game also features four kinds of capturable hexes marked by a flag indicating the country owning it: ownership, designating a player's ownership of a city, town or other important feature supply, allowing unit deployment victory, indicating critical cities or objectives and victory-supply, combining victory and supply. Mountain, city, and forest types block line of sight. At the beginning of the game, the entire map is revealed to the player, but enemy units are covered by fog of war and are not visible.Įach hex is assigned one of thirteen terrain types that penalize or assist the movement of units. All are played on a hex map, which is divided up into hexagons that represent between one and two kilometers.
#PANZER GENERAL 3D DEMO INSTALL#

#PANZER GENERAL 3D DEMO WINDOWS#
Tried off the CD, did'nt like it, kept saying it was a windows game, and would'nt install.
In its own odd way, made you think of what battles in Master of Orion 1 and 2 would be if played in Star Fleet General and Dropship General. So you had a fleet interplanetary game and you had planets with battles similar to Panzer General on it. the first way on the interplanetary map, and the other was actually fighting with armor, etc on actual planet land surfaces. The one thing I really liked about Star General was that it really had two levels of tactics. If anybody finds a way to run Star General, let me know.
Thanks to Cerburusiv and Cuqueen for mentioning these. I'm going to have to try these out during Christmas Holidays. Anybody know any active links to those?īoth links seem active and have downloads listed (for Open General and PGForever). I had not heard about either Open General or PGForever, I'll have to look for those.
