RECOMMENDED READING
Before starting Panzer General 3D Assault, we recommend you
review the following pages in the manual.
CAMPAIGN INFORMATION
Kesselring: rating 152. Note that this campaign has been designed
to be more difficult than the rest of the campaigns. Modifying
the difficulty rating will simplify it somewhat but it should
still remain a challenge, even for veteran players.
MANUAL UPDATES
<<Major Victory>>
One benefit of obtaining a major victory not listed in the manual
is the addition of a roster slot to your army.
<<Order Change>>
All Out Attack - this has been changed. When an infantry attacks
with this order active and generates a retreat (barring
entrenchment), the enemy unit will surrender.
HINTS
- Recon units are one of the most important aspects of your army
composition. They can spot hidden units and can screen your
forces from the view of the enemy. Protect them carefully (the
AI loves to go after them).
- If you have the time and the scenario allows, rebuild your
army before a battle (use the auto-breakdown key to breakdown
the undeployed units and then build it back piece by piece).
It is the best way to optimize your forces. Note that you can
exit headquarters, review the main map, strat. Map, and
objectives and then return to headquarters to modify your army
to fit the terrain.
- Use the Veteran Orders, the higher you promote the leaders,
the more powerful the orders and that combined with the
advantages gained by promoting to the 5+ and 8+ levels can be
overwhelming.
- Watch the rear areas, the AI will send battlegroups to try and
capture the objectives already in your hands. Keep a garrison
or a fire brigade (small group of friendly units) to protect
your conquests.
