Description
Published by Simulation Publications, Inc. (SPI) in 1975, Panzer '44 is a game about tactical armoured warfare in Europe between the Western Allies and Germany from the summer of 1944 through the end of the war.

P44 uses a simultaneous-sequential system. At the start of each turn, both players secretly plot the actions of their units for the turn. Actions include Direct Fire, Indirect Fire (and counterbattery), Opportunity Fire, Movement (including loading or unloading passengers), and close assault (something infantry only can do against armoured targets). Units which are to make an attack must indicate the exact target hex, while units which are to move need only be noted as making a move. Indirect Fire requires a spotter who can see the target hex.

I like how you have redone the Counters.
I found the game has a Soviet Expansion.
Official or Homebrew ,not sure.

Could this be added to your game.
And maybe work your Counter Magic on the expansion too?

Thanks guys! For a first attempt ripping images from the Tank Encyclopedia site, they didn't turn out half bad :)

Dont know how to play... but I'll figure it out. This game is right up my alley. Thank you.

Plot two or three sets of logical actions for first side.
Plot the second side.
Let the die decide between the sets of actions of the first side. Not necessarily with the same probabilities for each one

That's a tough one... develop another personality whose actions and thoughts are independent from your own? :) It does seem to scream out for a live opponent, I did include solo variant rules which include those panic dice.

Hi Holden! No errors don't worry :) I wanted to ask if you have any suggestions for solo play for secret plotting? Thank you for all your efforts.
