What's Your Favorite PzC Scenario? Why? - Kool Kat - 10-29-2016 Gents:  Please post your "all-time" favorite PzC scenarios in this thread! It would be helpful to all players who are getting ready to invest their gaming time in a "new-to-them" PzC scenario! Since I started this thread... I'll go first!  Caveat - I currently own only a handful of PzC titles, but of these games, the following scenario ranks the highest in enjoyment, excitement and playability! #15 Charge to Chuguev - (Kharkov'42) Simply one of the best Kharkov 42 scenarios! The Russian has many offensive options, but needs to make surgical and deliberate advances against the German defense lines due to the Soviet being burdened with many "delicate" Morale D and E units. The Russian player needs to understand how best to use his important engineer assets and note that some sapper units do not have bridges. Careful fatigue management - even in this relatively short (24 turns) scenario is essential - especially for the Russian who can maintain offensives in any one area for only short periods of time due to his overall poor Morale units. Between equal players, this scenario is well balanced and victory can swing to either side. High replay value with multiple offensive and defensive options available for each side. Highly recommended scenario! Will play this one again! Please list your favorite PzC scenarios and reasons why you rate them so high! 
RE: What's Your Favorite PzC Scenario? Why? - Fhil - 10-29-2016 Another great post!  Well, my favourite scenario to date, though I´ve played it only once yet, is definitely this one: Operation Winter Storm - (Stalingrad ´42) A 80 turns long medium sized scenario, very enjoyable for both sides. Although I´ve received a Major Loss as a German, the game was not decided so easily, the situation ended up pretty close to historical, my panzer divisions reaching the Myshkova river, but losing the momentum definitely in there. I can post a picture or two from the final positions later. It was one of the best games I´ve played with very interesting options for both sides. Not so many units, a lot of space, a snow storm here and there twisting the game in an interesting direction. Definitely recommend the HTH version we´ve played, I will surely get back to this one sooner or later 
RE: What's Your Favorite PzC Scenario? Why? - Ricky B - 10-29-2016 Mike, I would have to give Charge to Chuguev a big thumbs up as one of my top few at least. I would have to give some thought as to what else, before I can answer. Rick RE: What's Your Favorite PzC Scenario? Why? - Fhil - 10-29-2016 I will add one more: 48th Panzer Korps Dual Missions - (Kursk ´43) Very interesting and balanced scenario of 20 turns. I think I´ve played it two times and both games were very interesting. There´s a lot of tanks on a small area, the tactical situation itself is very interesting, I can again only highly recommend
RE: What's Your Favorite PzC Scenario? Why? - jonnymacbrown - 11-01-2016 Please list your favorite PzC scenarios and reasons why you rate them so high! My favorite is the strategic option campaign scenario in F 40. Great map! jonny
RE: What's Your Favorite PzC Scenario? Why? - Partizanka - 11-01-2016 Kharkov '42 #22 Cutting the Turkey's Neck Going way back in time here. Lots of favorites but this is one I remember the most. Just a 14 turn scenario, but so much packed into it. The Germans have to cross a great map with hilly terrain, full of scattered forests, villages, mine, and Russians to force a river crossing to take the objectives needed to win. The scenario was full of suspense playing blind. I definitely need to play it again sometime. EP '14 1914_0827_03s: The Fight For the Centre Figured I'd mention a FWWC scenario as well. this scenario has some of the best balance I've seen. Opportunities for both sides to attack and defend.

Here's why this thread is helpful to other players. Normally, I would not consider playing a "less-then" 20 turn scenario... because I want to have time to develop strategies and I enjoy the fatigue / morale management aspects of the PzC Series. But with this endorsement from a fellow player... I am all in here! Hopefully, more folks will post and share their favorite PzC scenarios too! 
RE: What's Your Favorite PzC Scenario? Why? - jim pfleck - 11-05-2016 Reading this post I realize it has been a while since I have played some PZC! I do not have Sicily or El Alamein loaded on this CPU so forget the name of the scenarios but the Sicily scenario where the Germans counterattack the initial landings is great and attack and chase scenario from El Alamein that ends up with the Brits defending El Alamein is fantastic. I also really love Race to the Sea in France 14 (have played it as each side), The Juggernaut Exposed, and the full battle of the Marne. I am playing the Lodz Campaign in EP 14 and it is very different from anything else! RE: What's Your Favorite PzC Scenario?
