No, this can’t be! Initial outpost reports showed only armored infantry, but some serious hardware is headed this way! How could two 70-ton German Königstiger battle tanks simply be overlooked?! Well, no time to lay blame, just aim the bazooka and bring up the tanks from the rear. Only a direct hit can destroy them….
Codename: Panzers thrusts you into the high-powered battles of World War II. Whether played in towns with bullet-riddled buildings, bleak mountain landscapes, or treacherous swamps, Codename: Panzers offers real-time combat rampages with awesome 3D graphics. Create your combat force from over 100 finely detailed units, from a flame-throwing squad to a Soviet Stalin organ rocket launcher to a German Königstiger battle tank. Be the commander–demolish the enemy with clever tactical maneuvers. Experience the nerve-jangling thrill of strategic gaming–in Codename: Panzers!

+ Great graphics for the time of development and release
+ Spectacular gameplay moments, triggering identification with the situation and characters
+ Requires strategical and tactical capabilities, especially with regard to attack direction and timing (e.g. variable armor strength of armored vehicles). Rushing into battle without coordination, a bad unit composition and choice of equipment results in failure, even against weaker opponents and AI.

I am giving this a qualified recommendation because it was a great game back in the day and played well on a Windows 10 machine with a 1080p monitor. However, regardless of what this store page says it does not appear to be fully remastered to work with modern systems nor does it seem to have support for modern screen resolutions (unless the store page was written a decade ago). The game starts but only the top left of the menu appears. I have tried the F11 trick, editing the options file, etc. and none of that resolves the issue. The game simply is unplayable on a Windows 11 machine with a 2K monitor.

If you like hardcore, oldschool RTS, with NO base management, but developing units, this one is for you.
It's an old game, but runs smoothly, the resolution is ok :)
Finally found a gem, what has a proper single player mode, with story and everything.

Love the stories here both factions have a diverse and fun campaign its a little too easy but thats a minor issue. The stand out being the axis faction. great game

A true classic, especially given its age. Still playable and enjoyable after all these years. Safely recommended to anyone who wish to play and old school RTS.

You can capture enemy vehicles, that's all I wanted when I was young. Perfect game of an old era
