All-time classic Panzer Corps is coming back with three new expansions for a total of fifty new scenarios. Each one has its own unique theatre of operations and scenarios, but all linked in a colossal branching campaign with complete unit carry over!

In U.S. Corps '42 you start with "Operation Torch" where brave but inexperienced American "rookies" land in the sands of North Africa and join their allies. They must take the lead on several actions against the French command in Morocco and Algeria and then head eastwards, where they will face the remnants of the Italo-German army in Tunisia in a total of 16 different scenarios.

The second expansion begins the year after. In U.S. Corps '43 the goal is to liberate Sicily and use it as base from where to land on mainland Italy. The Allies have to overcome the resistance of the German army and open the road to Rome during another new set of 16 scenarios.

In the third and final instalment of the mega campaign, U.S. Corps '44 - '45, you'll lead the largest amphibious invasion in history, and with it, the Battle of Normandy. The plan is to land on several beaches in northern France, then to push east towards Berlin and finally put an end to the war for a total of 18 original scenarios!

Interested in U.S. Corps? Then don't miss this unique three at the price of two offer on the Slitherine store: If you buy the three expansions together you'll get one for free! How does it work? It's easy: once you add one of the expansions to your cart you will be offered to buy the other two at the discounted price of three at the price of two!

Also tonight, on May 26, 20.00 (CEST), we are going to give players a sneak peek of the game on our official Twitch channel!

What was I saying about too many games? Never mind, just take my money.

I know, right? We both went from that thread to here, ha! Game junkies all.

I'm heavily invested in the series at this point. Might as well keep going :P

Years ago (ok, decades ago), 2 games locked me into computer gaming forever: Civ and Panzer General. I've owned and played every Civ since the original and with today's purchase, I own every Panzer Corps game and DLC. Both make my "if you were stranded on a desert island what would you play" list.

Assuming, of course, said desert island had power and an internet connection   8)

PG 2 was the game that brought me back into the hobby after years of not playing video games. These games are gems for "beer & pretzels" style wargames.

Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.
