Description

Tank-to-tank combat on a tactical level

The Panzer® Miniature Rules is a modular game system designed for small unit actions using microarmor, 1/285th or 1/300th scale troops. For two or more players, it is a comprehensive and yet quick to-play set of full-color rules.

Scale: The vehicle and towed-gun scale is 1:1 with infantry at squad, 1/2 squad and section level.

No need to fill out weapon sheets as all the data is included on the full-color data cards.

The streamlined chit-based command system moves the action along at a brisk pace, getting players quickly into the action.
 It has one of the most comprehensive and detailed armor modeling systems (while still very simple to play). Its all here, from unique hit locations, armor angles and penetration charts, air-to-ground, hand-to-hand combat, close assault, overwatch fire, command control, unit cohesion, morale, smoke, bogging, sighting, and troop quality…everything you will need to recreate World War II tactical ground combat.
