Panzer
Grenadier: Campaigns and Commanders
Vol. 1: War in the
East
Panzer Grenadier: Campaigns and Commanders adds campaign games and World War II roleplaying
to our long-running Panzer Grenadier game
system. The series introduces new rules that
let Panzer Grenadier players create Leader
Characters representing officers in the armies
of the great powers that fought World War
II. Leader Characters participate in battle
scenarios just like normal Panzer Grenadier
leaders, but have far more detailed skills
and abilities that add a whole new dimension
to Panzer Grenadier play.
Each book in the series includes historical
campaign games that let Leader Characters
fight a sequence of battles where they can
gain combat experience, improve their leadership
abilities and acquire new skills. Most importantly,
Leader Characters can earn medals for bravery
and move up the ranks so that by the end
of the campaign they can be high-ranking
officers in command of large military formations.
Leader Characters who survive a campaign
can move on to new campaigns later in the
war.
In addition to the campaign game scenarios,
each book includes rules that let players
design their own scenarios and create their
own campaigns. There is a detailed point-based
force-generation system for players who want
to plan an entire campaign in advance, and
a random scenario generation system for players
who want maximum “Fog of War” in
their campaigns. This gives the system infinite
re-playability and lets players take their
Leader Characters into any World War II combat
situation imaginable.
War in the East includes the campaign games "The
September Campaign: 1939," “Barbarossa:
1941,” and “The Battle for Germany:
1945.” It also includes historical
articles and strategy tips on how to use
Leader Characters in battle. It is not playable
by itself, but requires ownership of Eastern
Front Deluxe, Road
to Berlin and White
Eagles to enjoy all of the
campaigns.
