  • Panzer Leader is the sequel to Avalon Hill's Panzerblitz game. Like its predecessor, it is a tactical platoon level hex and counter board wargame depicting WWII tank and infantry combat on the Western European front. It features 4 geomorphic map tiles, which can be put together in a variety of ways to play the provided scenarios (which are printed on cardstock, showing all the necessary information for a scenario) or home-made scenarios. The 20 provided scenarios cover various battles on the Western Front, with most of the scenarios involving the Normandy campaign or the Battle of the Bulge. Two scenarios cover the amphibious assaults on Omaha and Gold beaches and include special rules for naval fire. While based on Panzerblitz, the rules were cleaned up and included additional mechanics such as for air attacks and engineers. Several optional and experimental rules are provided, including one for opportunity fire to prevent "PanzerBush" tactics. The Panzer Leader map boards were interchangeable with the Panzerblitz maps, and one could combine the two sets to make a larger battlefield. The scale was the same with the two games. The German units were interchangeable, and if one wanted, they could try a "what if" scenario with American/British forces vs. Soviet forces. An extension kit covering the tanks of 1940 was also published. These were for the France 1940 campaign, and was meant for play with the Panzer Leader game.
