The release of Slitherine/Matrix's Panzer Corps 2 Spanish Civil War DLC comes to us in a delayed form. For Field Marshal Edition owners, 8th July 2020 is the date everyone got a restricted access download to upgrade the original game. Everyone else had to wait until today, 16th July, for general release... or if you're me, you got access to the Beta code and have been playing it for a while, ready to give you some hot-of-the-press thoughts.
BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) - Spanish Civil War (or SCW for this review) may not quite live up to all the hype that surrounds it, but it is a solid game and IMHO far better than the original base product as regards game play and historical environment. Here are my thoughts as to why.
What's New?
Honestly, not a whole Hell of a lot if you are talking about how the game operates or the procedures the gamer must manipulate to play. Everything works the same, and this is not a bad thing because it means you can jump right in as the German Condor Legion commander and start shooting stuff. For more detail on this not so revolutionary aspect, see my previous article on Panzer Corps 2 for further information.
