This is the first time I'm learning and playing a game made by GMT Panzer and I'm starting with already the 3rd Printing... I I was trying to learn more about the game, most of the inforamtion on the subject is since the first release of Panzer very few changes as been made to the rules... They say few adjustment as been made for some rules to make is easier to play and the streamline the game play. But if you ask me to be specific, I would not know. :)
I learned to play FOW with the principle that you trust your opponent. Honor system. But in truth, you can't trust a majority of players... Now just thinking about playing a game with certain players takes all my energy, because I can't trust them and I'd rather not play FOW anymore, I assume most of the tabletop game, like FOW, are open for easy cheating. I understand misinterpretation of certains rules may look like cheating... I do interpret some rules a certain way, and I may be wrong... But most of the time I will say I'm sorry and try to correct my play. Even if sometimes I still feel I'm in the right, all for the enjoyement of the game I will try to with is rules, because like I said FOW don't have any rules they just have guidelines... No riules, it's open season for cheating. Really few peoples I played with that I can trust. Even some peoples I played often against and trust them, I start to pay attention when it is his turn instead of trusting him... and he is constantly cheating. So tabletop game is not as fun as I was thinking because the amount of cheating As for GMT Panzer, the rules of the game are very clear and precise. movement is counted in hexes which makes the game, for me, much more enjoyable to play than playing against an opponent who tries to cheat every turn and whom you cannot trust... If you are looking at the tools to play the game Panzer is a BIG desapointement.... There is some flexibility in the rules to choose if you want to play with all the rules in the book or if your opponent agree select the rules you will play the game with and could be as much fun to play.... But for me, a good and fun game is a game with some rules and you play the game as intended to be.. I have few more video to make explaining the basic rules and then I will play the first scenario... I intend to make a video after that on the overall game play and give my feeling about the game.... But so far, Basic rules are simple and make the game easy to learn and play. Because of the rules cheating is difficult, I personnally think it's a good think for a fun and pleasant game
I just won this in a Pay it Forward! I feel I need to get right to combined arms fights…thanks for the help in learning
If this was $2 other wise I’d win it in a pay It forward too. DG4Life
is this different from the older version?

Board games definitely are more precise than minis because of the hexes and easily defined terrain.
Remember to have fun and roll those dice!
