The hexagon grid system and modular rules allow for a high degree of customization, so you can tailor your experience to your preferences. You'll have access to a wide range of units, from tanks and aircraft to infantry squads and artillery, each with its own unique characteristics and capabilities. The game also features a streamlined chit-based command system that keeps the action moving at a brisk pace. With 32 scenarios to choose from, you'll have plenty of opportunities to test your strategic skills and learn from your mistakes. The components of the game are just as impressive, with double-sided counter sheets, geomorphic mapboards, and diecut map terrain overlays that allow you to create complex and realistic battlefields. The rulebook is comprehensive, with basic, advanced, and optional rules that cater to different levels of experience and complexity. Whether you're a seasoned wargamer or new to the genre, Panzer North Africa offers a rich and rewarding experience that will challenge and engage you for hours on end.
