Title: Whats a good tank game
Post by: Tracer-15 on December 30, 2002, 08:11:46 PM

I wanna get a good tank game....on my old system i had MicroProses Across The Rhine....and i loved it...the ability to be the tank commander or gunner was great...but also being able to command the whole battalion was fun also...is there a newer game that would do about the same...ww2 of course

The only one I know of is Panzer Elite. It is kind of old and the graphics are a bit dated, but its still a lot of fun. I think you can pick up the "Special Edition" now for about $15. It includes several campaigns from North Africa to Normandy, etc. You control your own tank and command a platoon. There's a lot of attention to detail to armor, penetration, etc.

The Combat Mission series is a great armor game, but you don't control the tanks directly.  You give orders to their commanders.

Adds quietly: where a luger achieves clear penetration when firing on your feeble Mathilda, where the armour value of a tree trunk is so realisticly modeled it will topple your 30-ton tank.

Adds loudly where Panhards are the uber-tank of the universe, and where 7.7mg from aircraft disable a Panzer IV.
