Best Strategy Game For The IPad – Panzer Corps Review

I have never been a fan of the Panzer General series due to all the ridiculous combat results I would see 4 games into any campaign (conscripts completely annihilating my 3 star infantry after a "rugged defense", etc.). I understand this was to make it challenging but I would just lose interest. Whoever came up with limiting the randomness is brilliant. That was all the series was missing. Great history, innovative scenarios, and these downloadable modules are incredibly well written. I am going to spend 50 bucks on DLCs for a game I deleted years ago (before dice chess). Panzer Corps is as close to perfect as a historical strategy game can be (pay close attention to terrain people). Buy it today if you like this type of game and want to test yourself (while having fun). Update: I am playing the Soviet expansion and finding some scenarios with Germans units that are way too strong (overstrengthed Panthers at Tatsinkaya?). In the past I would have had to start the whole campaign over again on an easier setting (and replay the same battles). Now I just reload an earlier save and change the difficulty at the end of the battle. Brilliant! This also allows me to tweak the game by giving the computer more units when invading the Soviet Union (make the game harder as needed). The Grand Campaign has incredibly subtle details that really make the game enjoyable (such as real life war heroes). There are so many scenarios in the DLCs to play (I play around 3 or 4 times a week) that someone could easily be playing this thing for years. Outstanding!
