Tanks

**Tanks** are armored tracked fighting vehicles equipped with a rotary turret.

## *Panzer Corps*

In *Panzer Corps* the tank is one of the most useful and versatile units - powerful, well protected and mobile. They can strike deep into enemy territory, outflanking and bypassing fortified spots, destroying vulnerable support units (like artillery and anti-air guns) and preventing an organized defence and disrupting an enemy build up behind the main front line. They are also useful for protecting more vulnerable offensive units, like artillery and infantry, from enemy counter attacks. However, attacking entrenched infantry in close terrain with tanks is usually not a good idea - even the strongest tanks may take heavy casualties in these combat.

* In keeping with history and the game's title, tanks are your principal fighting force. They can't win the war alone, but properly supported they are an incredibly powerful force.
* Tanks excel in open terrain, where they can leverage their superior firepower and armor against enemy forces. However, they are surprisingly delicate and tactical bombers, anti-tank units, and entrenched infantry in rough terrain are a major challenge. Use fighters to cover your tanks and artillery or strategic bombers to neutralize the latter.
* Mobility is key. Usually it's far better to try and exploit a vulnerable spot in enemy lines or use a bridge engineer to bypass enemy fortifications, rather than try and force a breakthrough with tanks. Tie up enemy forces with as few units as you can spare and then move in for the kill elsewhere.

## *Panzer Corps 2*

The armoured fighting vehicle, better known by the more
common name of ‘tank’, is the master of open terrain.
Combining good speed, strong armour and considerable offensive strength,
tanks fear few enemies.

Their ‘overrun’ ability allows them to finish off
crippled enemy units without using their attack action, making them
perfectly positioned to clear a battlefield of enemies once the battle has
been won. However, tanks are far from invulnerable: anti-tank guns and
tactical bombers in particular are well equipped to defeat tanks in battle,
and their weak close defence rating means that they will usually perform
poorly against entrenched infantry in close terrain.

As the war progresses,
tanks become really powerful and advanced, but also very expensive in
terms of prestige and core slots, forcing you to choose between quantity
and quality.
