Liam Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 I just got this game out of a batch of games I was selling E-bay. I never tried Panzer General before because I'd gotten away from the purer Wargames earlier and leaned more towards the strategic ones. Wow! Even the the date, worked on my XP and the interface was really really kewl. My mouse however moved slowly. Could you imagine some of the mixtures of Panzer General and Strategic Command? If you did that what you could come up with? Would be kick ass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les the Sarge 9-1 Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Liam, seeing as you are new to Panzer General, it stands to reason you will want to see these two sites then. http://pub131.ezboard.com/bjpspanzers http://www.warhexes.ro/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Posted March 7, 2004 Author Share Posted March 7, 2004 thankyou Les, kewl.. I might take this up if I can get a good deal on Panzer General II, I is kinda choppy. What a fan club! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les the Sarge 9-1 Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 It should be noted, but discreetly ie I won't mention where, but those games ie the Panzer General series, can be freely downloaded from more than a few well know locations. Although, if you want to do the noble thing, I would offer CDAccess.com as a reasonable source. http://www.cdaccess.com/html/pc/49wwii.htm And they sell original article in most cases. And I have bought from them before, so I will endorse them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendly Fire Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 A great classic game, have fun with it Liam. I recall it is AI only, no multiplayer, too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Smith Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Is this game windows 2000 compatable? Many of this era were Win95 or 98 only. I'd like to know before I hunt it down. Any hints on web sites Les? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feldtrompeter Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Hi All Panzer General is also played at www.panzerliga.de It's a German site but it will get an international (English) section soon (hopefully). Panzer General Western Assault and Scortched Earth are not Win 2000 and XP compatible (German version for sure but likely also the English). You will have to do some research in forums to find a setting that will alow the game to run under XP. I use XP Professional and it is only now that I have installed an old driver for my graphic card that both games works under XP. (I use the 28.32 diver for my GeForce).

Les the Sarge 9-1 Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 To respect Battlefront, see my remarks on my own forum that furthers this conversation. (see my link in my sig) Brief comment though, Inside of Win XP Pro I can run all but original Panzer General. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonheart Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 Panzergeneral 1 was a Multiplayer game many years ago where one could play via the platform Multplayer.com...unfortunately this platform merged with Arcade games and panzergeneral vanished from the list of games played there. There was lot of fun to play 1 vs 1 or 2 vs 2 even up to 12 players could play simultanously...and imagine it was working!!!! There was a ladder too and i remember playing ag alot american guys. Panzergeneral 1 was the first great strategy game after HISTORY LINE 1914-18 which was one of the first and best strategy games to this time. I played these games hundrets of hours and this is maybe a reason that i m a very good player for strategy related games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Smith Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 Quite right Les old man. It would be improper to thrash out issues such as this on the Battlefront Site. A tad sacrilegious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UgediBugedi Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 YOu should also get Allied General, which is windows based and as good as Panzer General. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
