Thanks for the advice, David. I had no problem downloading this on the home computer yesterday. And that's a heckuva demo. You'll know whether you like the game or not.

Cheers,
CC

Game looks good, decent graphics, still trying to find out how a unit moves a mortar though.

Not much of a difference for me with the other titles. However, it's a nice demo.

Found this Gem the other day.
Wow, for a free Demo this is supurb, not ever having a John Tiller sim, maybe because in the gaming world the Eastern Front and ETO have been flogged to death, I had no real yearing to get stuck into them.

The senarios are great 'bite size' intro's into the 'Panzer Battle' systems.
Maps have been refurbished and 3 Unit graphic opitions - NATO, Topdown (ASL style) and Side profile with small NATO in the corner, - my favorite, are fantastic.
I especially enjoy the North Africa senarios, really get immersive, I feel the sand in my hair and sun on my back lol.

This is a great system and I'll be getting 'Panzer Battles 3' - North Africa 41 when its released, with an option on 'Normandy'
- cough cough, 'Market Garden' would be a good expansion to the series too.

This is a treat. I never tried one of these games, but always enjoyed the West Front/East front/Rising sun games. Before I start the demo, how near are these games to those?

Not even close at the software level. Not really close visually. Not too far off at the level of command.

They do require an understanding of the interface.

Have been experimenting with the demo for this. I think the key is to become familiar with the UI mechanics of it ... the more you get used to that the more fun it is. My girlfriend caught me playing it and said: "It looks like a game of Jenga" :-)
