Panzer Corps 2: Axis Operations - 1940 DLC Review

The latest DLC entry in the Panzer Corps 2 product line is all about the scenarios. There is nary anything new as regards game mechanics and the like, so if you need a refresher on how the game is actually played, please refer to my previous Panzer Corps 2 review from March this year.

This DLC is titled Axis Operations 1940, and as you might have guessed, presents 19 (semi) historical scenarios from that specific year of the war, all from the German perspective. Bottom line - after two games each of the Grebbeberg, Lille, Abbeville and Neufchateau scenarios from the France 40 campaign, the Epsom scenario from Sea Lion and the Pindus scenario from the Italian invasion of Greece, I'm ready to talk leftover Thanksgiving turkey.

So, pass the stuffing and let's eat. (No, I don't understand what he's talking about either-ED)

Scenario Design Overview

Axis Operations 1940, or AO40, gives you an excellent intro to the military principals of war with accurate movement and casualty rates, and competitive contests conveying a solid World War II ambiance overall. However, the details are not quite so... did I mention how good the ambience was?
