Panzer Corps: join the Slitherine Tournament!

Fans of the old Panzer General series rejoice for the release of Panzer Corps. Following in the footsteps of the popular SSI masterpiece and sharing with the General series the same level of engagement and strategic depth, Panzer Corps will keep an unmistakable "PG feeling" whilst improving and refining the gameplay and balance. Panzer Corps will feature 26 scenarios on 21 unique maps, covering most major battles of the European Theatre of World War II and including a few hypothetical 'what if' scenarios based on your actions. Now expanded with a full-war mega-campaign and the Afrika Corps and Allied Corps releases!

Panzer Corps: join the Slitherine Tournament!

Post by AlbertoC »

Panzer Corps fans (we know there’s many of you out there) we have wonderful news for you.

We’re going to run a big tournament to establish once and for all who the real Panzer Corps Slitherine champion is!

Our tournament system hasn’t been implemented yet, so we’re going to run this in the good old way: manually. It will be a 32 player direct elimination tournament, which means we’ll have some very spectacular semifinals and final!

Important: this will be a rather big tournament, and we want our players to be motivated. It will be a direct elimination tournament, and each round will last one week. The rounds will be played on balanced MP maps in elimination rounds: if you think you can’t complete your game in a week please don’t sign up. This will be an intense experience - failure to complete your game in the allocated time will result in elimination from the tournament. It will be up to the participants to demonstrate (in the form of screenshots) their participation, their submitted turns and, most importantly, their victories!

It goes without saying that there will be some nice prizes for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd places.

The first round will start next Monday – and that’s when we’ll announce the first map, so it’s going to be a surprise. Yes, I have an evil grin as I type this.

So, do you want to give it a shot?

Send an e-mail to albertoc@slitherine.co.uk providing your username on the forum and your timezone / hours in which you can play normally. Be quick! There are only 32 open slots!


One last thing: Many thanks to Goose 2 for all his suggestions and his activity on organizing tournaments for Panzer Corps – this tournament wouldn’t have been possible without his efforts. Thank you! You’re a real pillar of the Panzer Corps community.

This brings back memories... We arranged Panzer General and Steel Panthers tournaments in 1997-98. Had a place called "The Generals Guild".
Biggest tournament was 128 players and we received prize games and material from SSI.

Think I got an old SSI trinket left...lets see - yes here it is 😁👍
