Panzer Corps 2017 Multiplayer Championship!
Last year we were able to run a very successful Panzer Corps tournament, the first Slitherine sponsored tournament for Panzer Corps. 32 players took part in it, and misterno won the title of champion! We were very happy with the outcome, and we have decided that it’s time for a new official Panzer Corps TOURNAMENT!
It’ll be even bigger this time, a huge wargaming event like no other before. We’ll be starting the first round on D-Day on 6th June (what better date to start a tournament of Panzer Corps?). We would like to reach a total of 96 players! Whoever wins this will be without doubts the official 2017 Panzer Corps champion! And it’s not just that – if we fill all slots and we reach 96 players we’ll give a truly massive prize to the winner! I bet you’re curious now.
This tournament wouldn’t be possible without the passion and dedication of a pillar of the Panzer Corps community, goose_2. He proposed the idea, and has offered his time and energy to manage the tournament – he won’t take part in it as a player, but will instead take the role of neutral administrator and moderator of the tournament. Thank you goose_2!

Panzer Corps is out on Mac!
The wargame which brought an entire genre back to life, played and enjoyed by millions of players, a genuine classic and a cornerstone in strategy gaming, is now AVAILABLE ON MAC! Panzer Corps is the kind of game which needs no introduction: it has seen years of development and it has evolved into a huge game with masses of content, and you can experience it fully on Mac. Hundreds of scenarios, thousands of units, countless hours of enjoyment, and years of polishing and fine tuning bringing the game close to perfection – all of this is just a click away.
The Panzer Corps saga continues – the port to Mac will allow many new players to enjoy the game, bringing new life in the game itself. And you can enjoy this timeless masterpiece while you wait for a certain sequel…
A new story begins... Panzer Corps 2 has been announced!
When we released Panzer Corps six years ago, our goal was to revive a genre by going back to its roots. We worked with Flashback Games and The Lordz Games Studio and with the help of a vibrant community to create a new classic that would start a new era in wargaming. We had goals, hopes and objectives, but we couldn’t possibly imagine the impact this game would have had in the wargaming and strategy gaming communities.
The release of Panzer Corps marked the return of a long-neglected gaming formula, which we knew still had a large and loyal following. Its spectacular success brought an almost forgotten genre back into fashion, it inspired multiple clones and literally gave new life to an entire market.
After over five years of expansions, mods, challenges and tournaments, a brand-new instalment of the franchise is ready to take the strategy gaming segment by storm again. This time, with even bigger ambitions.

Panzer Corps 2 is currently in development using Unreal Engine 4, to allow an impressive leap forward in both technological capabilities and visual impact. Hundreds of World War 2 units will be shown with a level of quality and detail never seen before in awargame.
The move to a fully 3D engine is a natural evolution of the game, but the core gameplay will always remain true to its roots: pay tribute to the classic gameplay of a distant golden age of strategy gaming, refine it, perfect it and use the most recent technologies to enhance these experiences and bring them to a new generation of gamers. In other words, strike the perfect balance between tradition and innovation, both in visuals and gameplay.
We will disclose more details about the game as we move through the development process, so make sure you follow us on the forum and on the Flashback Games site.

Become the Panzer Corps Slitherine Champion!
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.
