Ode To Panzerblitz / Ode To Panzer Leader scenarios available in the Scenario DB - Crossroads - 03-16-2015

Everyone,

To cut a long story short, much to my dismay I found out the other day Wargamer's Games Depot had closed down, with none of the content available to the outside.

I was after Alan R. Arvold's Ode To Panzerblitz and Ode To Panzer Leader scenarios, which make available all the original Avalon Hill boardgame situations to East Front II and West Front.

I contacted Alan in fear of these wargame classics having disappeared to void, but much to my relief he had all the file sets still available.

"All", meaning 81 Panzerblitz situation conversions and 73 Panzer Leader situation conversions!

To have them all available again to the public, with a quick test they play properly on MCS 2.02, I am releasing them to Blitz Scenario DB one situation per week, for both games.

"One per week", he said. Yes, quite a nice countdown towards MCS 3.0 to be released in 2016 don't you think Helmet Wink

This weekend's PB/PL Special includes:

Is it possible to put a download link in your grey box description, instead of downloading them from the scenario DB?
