PanzerZug (1998)

About this game

PanzerZug is a card based/driven game where players are attempting to destroy the most German railroads and freight yards. Each player outfits their selection of one of three planes (Mustang, Thunderbolt, or Typhoon) with cards representing fuel, guns, and bombs. In turn, a target is drawn and the player attempts to destroy it, or refit his plane for next turn. There is much interaction as the other players try to stop opponents while maximizing their own attacks.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.6/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
