If no tanks can get within range, one does this mostly by bombers, but then it is advantageous to destroy the air defense units first.
Before attacking the infantry and anti-tank, one needs first to destroy the enemy artillery that protects them from behind. Dug-in enemy positions must be softened by artillery, which is vulnerable and needs protection. The game requires the player to use combined-arms tactics, where each unit is strong against some unit types but very vulnerable to others.
Units are able to gain experience and become stronger, where success in one battle would award the player prestige to upgrade units, acquire additional units, and select a better scenario for the next battle. Its novel feature was to link individual scenarios into a campaign spanning World War II from 1939 to 1945. While the names and information for the units are reasonably accurate, the scenarios only approximate historical situations. Panzer General is an operational-level game, and units approximate battalions, although the unit size and map scale from one scenario to the next are elastic. In Campaign Mode, the player assumes the role of a German Generalissimus against the Allied computer. One plays lone scenarios from either Axis or Allied side and against a computer or human opponent. Panzer General is a turn-based game, set on operational level hex maps.
