Achtung Panzer

Achtung Panzer is a grand-campaign for Blitzkrieg, depicting the whole course of World War 2 from the German perspective. Since its release date, Achtung Panzer became by far the most popular fan-made addition ever created for Blitzkrieg. So if you are looking for a classic experience from the gold era of Blitzkrieg, then Achtung Panzer is exactly what you need.

This campaign allows you to play 32 challenging missions mainly on large-scale maps which will thoroughly test your commanding skills. As a German commander, you will go through Poland, Belgium and France, North Africa, various battles on the Eastern Front, in Italy or Ardennes.

Achtung Panzer utilizes the best from the classic Blitzkrieg gameplay and moreover, it also introduces several gameplay changes, which were implemented without the need for a full-scale mod. These minor changes include mainly:

• Most of the time, artillery can be used as an effective support both for defensive and offensive purposes, because the artillery batteries of yours and the enemy are so distant from each other that even if those acoustic circles reveal their positions, you don't need to fear that you would suffer an immediate counter-bombardment each time you use it.
• In Achtung Panzer, you can really utilize a situation when you have the air superiority over your enemy. Relax times for aviation were significantly shortened in every mission, so now you can even provide an air cover to your bombers if you want to.
• Many enemy positions are heavily defended, so in case you are ordered to capture such a strongpoint, you will have the best chance to succeed with a combination of artillery preparation, airforce bombardment and tanks attacking only with support of infantry. Attacks with tanks only are simply no longer an easy way to success.
