Yeah I never played PG2 but Panzer Commander Corps definitely has me addicted like back in the PG1 days.
While at work today I kept thinking of how I am going to attack the mountain city in my current scenario should I use mountain troops or use parachute troops, fun options like that.
The hard part for me was forking over $39 for what is an enhancement of a classic game, but once I figured out that this is exactly the game most PG fans like me have always hoped for, a great game updated to today's standard, so I ordered it, and I don't regret it one bit, having lots of fun, and if I can build up the skills a bit I may try some PBEM which seems really well done.
PS. I am not a hardcore wargamer, COH, TotalWar etc. are my typical games so Panzer Commander Corps is just up my alley (like PG1), though I am hoping this will be a gateway game to get me into more hardcore wargames like TOW2, CMBN etc.

PG was my entry into wargaming. I'm not hardcore either, but moved on to Steel Panthers and Combat Mission (and Shock Force, CMBN). D\L Panzer Corps the day it was released and I too am hooked again. PG was such a perfect game, it's great to see that Slitherine actually improved it in every way while keeping the PG 'magic' intact.

ya, in wargamer heaven right now with CMBN, Panzer Corps, and Panzer Command... not to mention the CMSF series, (and the CM Afghanistan game).

Panzer Corps is good. Playing on medium difficulty and the AI seems very good so far. Game v1.00 is rock solid and very enjoyable. Definitely a descendant of the SSI 5 star series with many refinements and the UI is absolutely perfect.

We already own the rights to the Steel Panthers mega campaigns and all the source so it's something we can look in to if there is a demand and a clear idea what it the game would be!
