Panzer Missions

Panzer Missions is a turn based strategy game set on the WW2 eastern front, modelling Increasingly difficult small-scale operations with tanks, infantry and artillery units. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011. Most recent version out on August 2026.

As the commanding officer of a squadron of German WWII forces, including tanks, infantry, and artillery units, your mission is to tactically navigate increasingly challenging campaigns with speed and precision. As the game progresses, you will receive better units, with the Germans transitioning from Panzer IVs to formidable Tigers, and the Russians acquiring powerful T-34 tanks.

You must also manage crucial logistics such as fuel transportation for your armored units and ammunition delivery to your artillery using trucks. The maps are designed on a small scale, ensuring that each mission is fast-paced and action-packed, allowing you to test your tactical skills to the fullest. Victory will require planning, resource management, and strategic prowess to achieve success in the heat of WWII combat.

"The Eastern Front was a war of nerves. Both sides were constantly trying to outsmart and outmaneuver the other."
- Soviet marshal Konstantin Rokossovsky
