It's several years now since the original 'Panzer General' blitzkrieged its way on to the PC gaming scene, opening up the turn-based wargame to a whole new audience. Previously the domain of the hardcore gamer and table-top generals, wargames had never been so sexy.
Cross Of Iron
But then came the inevitable flood of sequels and shoddy tie-ins, including everything from the reasonably good 'Allied General' and 'Panzer General II' through to cringe inducing tripe like 'Fantasy General'. The franchise seemed to have lost its way, and the ever growing real-time strategy genre was beginning to make Panzer General look dated and downright pedestrian. SSI's answer was to make the jump into 3D with the aptly named 'Panzer General 3D', with mixed results.
And so we come to 'Panzer General III : Scorched Earth', which takes the old but still effective Panzer General 3D engine and shows it some new tricks in the form of atmospheric fog, rain and snow effects, whilst transplanting the action to the eastern front. Although American and British units are included for the multiplayer component of the game, the single player campaigns are all based around the desperate battles between Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia, taking you from Germany's drive into Poland in 1939 through to the fall of Berlin in 1945.
At the heart of the game then are two Soviet and two German campaigns for the single player, which allow you to take on the roles of legendary generals of the period such as Guderain and Zhukov. These include anything from half a dozen up to eighteen battles to fight, depending on which general you choose to fight as, and which route you take through their campaign.
The Best Defense?
Yes, one of the greatest features of the original Panzer General is back, and in style. The game features a full 'branching scenario system' which gives it an unprecedented amount of replay value. Your success in each mission has a direct influence on your future progress through the game, and scoring a 'Major Victory' by completing your objectives ahead of schedule is vital to ultimately win the war. And even after a battle is over you are almost always given a choice of at least two or three possibilities for your next mission.
The end result is that although each of the four campaigns are a manageable length, you will be encouraged to come back and play through them over and over again, as each time they will play out differently, allowing you to see battles which were skipped over the last time you played the game, or taking you down an entirely separate branch of the campaign if you are more or less successful than on your last attempt.
The only problem is that the missions themselves are rather repetitive. The back of the box boasts of 'new victory conditions' which 'allow for a greater variety of battles', but at the end of the day almost all of them boil down to 'take objectives A, B and C within so many turns'. Sometimes you will also be asked to exit a certain number of units from a certain road on the far side of the map, but this is hardly an exciting step forward. The most common new objective is to destroy certain marked enemy units within the time limit, but this can become plain annoying when you have routed the enemy army, and are left frantically searching the entire map for the last one or two units which you have been told to eliminate, and which are almost inevitably hidden under a bush somewhere.
The entire war is an endless succession of offensives and counter-offensives, with the occasional strategic withdrawal to break the monotony. Even these are just offensives in reverse though, tasking you with exiting a certain number of units from the far end of the map, and involving fighting your way through enemy lines but (get this!) heading in the wrong direction. I still haven't found a single truly defensive mission in the entire game, and even the few stand-alone missions provided can only be fought from a single perspective, which is always that of the attacker.
Point And Click
Battles begin at your headquarters, where you can see a parade ground with a line of officers waiting for assignment, a tent full of equipment, and two smaller tents which contain various other options, allowing you to dismiss officers, clear your roster, save the game, and view your campaign history.
Your first task is to customize your army by moving leaders in and out of your roster and assigning them to a specific unit type from the equipment tent, whether that is a Tiger tank or conscripted infantry. Each leader belongs to one of eight classes - infantry, tank, anti-tank, air defense, recon, artillery, fighter or bomber - and ideally you should try to match a leader with the appropriate type of unit. You can, for example, put an anti-tank officer in charge of a bomber unit if you are short on leaders of the right type, but they will not be as effective.
Once you have decided which combination of units and officers you want to use it's off to the deployment phase, in which you place your units on the map in any of the highlighted hexes, and then the battle begins. Controlling your army is a simple case of point and click. Select one of your units with a single mouse click and colored hexes will show you any available targets they can fire at and locations they can move to. Another click on one of those highlighted hexes will perform the appropriate action, accompanied by a short animation as your truck or tank trundles over the 3D battlefield's rolling hills, or your unit opens fire on an enemy.

Additional actions are selected by clicking on icons in the interface bar along the bottom of the screen, allowing you to instantly select another unit from your army to move next, or to assign special orders such as setting artillery to provide defensive fire for surrounding units, telling a bomber unit to fly in the clouds to avoid detection, or resupplying ammunition. It's all very easy to get to grips with, but mastering combined arms tactics and all of the intricacies and quirks of the Panzer General rules will take you some time. You will also have to take care of both units and officers, as the best equipment is often in short supply, and experienced leaders can carry out more actions in a single turn as they are promoted throughout the game.

Sadly, although the game itself is fun to play and offers a vast number of battles to fight and strategies to try out, it does have some major flaws, from the basic rules of the game through to a lack of adequate beta testing.
In practice however, newer chipset designs are usually made only for the newer processor packages, and older ones may not be updated to accommodate for recent package designs. Because of this, the same chipset can be used for, or designs with any CPU in the family. Intel i5 8400 driver. In addition, certain chipsets may be implemented in motherboards with different processor packages, much like how the 440FX could be used either with a Pentium Pro (Socket 8) or Pentium II (Slot 1).
Perhaps the most annoying aspect of the game is the 'refit' rule, which allows any unit not adjacent to an enemy to replace any men it has lost, although it cannot carry out any other activity during that turn. What this means in practice is that unless you completely destroy an enemy unit in a single round, it may skulk away and reappear a couple of turns later fully repaired. Not particularly realistic, and not particularly fun either.
Even worse, sometimes units will automatically retreat a single hex if they suffer heavy losses in combat, and unless you have the necessary actions left to follow them they can then simply refit themselves during the enemy's turn, and you will have to start wearing them down all over again in the next turn. Needless to say this can become highly irritating.
The vast number of battles included in the game has caused some problems as well, and it looks like not all of them have been properly tested before the game was released. Descriptions are missing for a few of the battles, at least one mission suddenly ends with a 'Loss' screen at seemingly random intervals, and even more bizarrely some missions crash back to Windows when you move your cursor over a particular hex on the battlefield. In at least one case this hex of death was right next to a major objective, and proved to be something of a nuisance..
Mission balancing is also somewhat askew in places, with some of the battles ridiculously easy if you use a different approach to the one the designers anticipated. This is particularly common in missions where you must exit a certain number of units from a road at the far end of the map, as simply bypassing towns and using fast moving units allows you to complete many of these missions within just three or four turns with minimal losses.
Conclusion
Scorched Earth Computer Game
Despite its flaws though, Panzer General III is probably the best entry in the series since the original. The welcome return of a massively branching campaign structure, along with dozens of battles to fight, units to deploy, and officers to lead them gives an almost unlimited amount of replay value for the lone wargamer. There are also a small number of stand-alone missions, including a fascinating 'what if' scenario which sees Soviet Russia invading the Reich in 1940.
The AI puts up a fair fight in most cases, but if you want tougher opposition up to four people can play over a LAN or the internet, although sadly the old 'play by e-mail' option is now gone. A battle generator can be used to create new scenarios for multiplayer battles, but unfortunately can't be used to create new single player missions. You can even lead British and American armies as well as the Germans and Russians in multiplayer, allowing you to see what would have happened if Patton had had his way and rolled right on towards Moscow after the Nazis were defeated.
At the end of the day Panzer General III provides you with plenty to keep you busy until the next installment in the series rolls out, and if you can look past the occasional (though admittedly serious) bug and the relative lack of variety in mission objectives, it's well worth a look for hardened wargamers and newcomers to the genre alike.

There has been an alarming trend recently to release what amounts to an add-on pack, repackage it and try to convince the public it's a new version. Although Panzer General doesn't do this, it comes very close.The original Panzer General 3D broke all the rules for turn-based hex games. Great graphics, full 30 views and above all, no hexes. Set on the Western Front, it put you in control of either the Allies or the Axis, in battles ranging from Africa to a hypothetical German invasion of Washington. Any game that means you can send Stukas over the White House has got to be good.
So along comes PGIII: Scorched Earth. Is there a new engine? No. Have the graphics been updated? No. It's basically the original PG. The German units are unchanged from its predecessor and, although the Russian units are well modelled and very pretty, it still feels like you're playing the first version.

Now the old adage 'If it aint broke, don't fix it' springs to mind and, in that respect, SSI should be given credit. But seeing as they either forgot - or avoided - putting the Western campaigns on, it kind of ruins the moment. Sure, you can still play multiplayer games with either the German, British, Russian or American units, but it would have been nice to see the imagination that was used in some ol the PG3D scenarios being put to good use here.

For example, Patton wanted to attack Russia after the defeat of Germany. There are the units in the game, America Vs USSR 1945, and all it would have taken is a bit of lateral thinking. Sadly the game is devoid of that.. Pretty good, but definitely not exciting in any shape of the word.
