Description

It is said that every end is a new beginning. And while we all know the Second World War ended in 1945, Panzer Corps 2 is making the unprecedented leap to continue the Axis Operations with one final, grand installment:

Axis Operations 1946: Amerika

Using the ahistorical campaign path established in previous DLC as a springboard, Axis Operations 1946 offers players an absolutely massive and completely original campaign to explore a joint German-Japanese invasion of the United States.

Prepare your Wehrmacht invasion forces for their final battles to take on the mighty United States in a huge, 30 scenario campaign that will take your armies from coast to coast across the Continental US.

To properly tell this original story, we have even taken the special measure to bring on an American Historical Specialist to give this campaign a true air of historical context and authenticity!

An Original Campaign Experience for New and Veteran Players Alike


While the lore of the events leading up to this Axis invasion of the United States is steeped in the previous campaigns of the Axis Operations series, 1946 has been specially designed to welcome all players to enjoy.

To facilitate this, Axis Operations 1946 has a new, tiered objective system present in practically every scenario of the campaign.

Primary Objectives:
These are the traditional bread and butter objectives that fans of the Panzer General series have come to know and love. Battle for territory control as you advance your armies across the United States.
These objectives are required for campaign progression, and are designed to be manageable for all players.

Bonus Objectives:
Different from previous Axis Operations bonus objectives, 1946 bonus objectives are locations that are off the beaten path. Players looking to scour for extra prestige resources will find abundant bonus objectives to pursue to make sure their Panzer Corps is well maintenanced and ready for combat.
All bonus objectives are purely optional.

Elite Objectives:
These objectives are designed to be tackled by veteran players with deeply imported CORE forces. Expect to see brutal enemy hero combinations, massively overstrengthed enemies, and potentially much worse...
All elite objectives are purely optional.

NEW GAMEPLAY FEATURES COMING IN 1946

  • Special extra large unit models for warships such as the Japanese Super Battleship Yamato



  • American Atomic B-29 Bombers
  • German Atomic armed V-2 Rockets



  • Japanese 6 engine Fugaku bombers specifically modified with Fritz X Missiles
  • Several completely original unit designs, created just for Panzer Corps 2



  • Landkruisers!

CONTINUE WITH YOUR OWN PANZER CORPS

Players can import their core forces that completed the previous Axis Operations 1945 East campaign or use a preset core force to directly launch into the Axis Operations 1946 Amerika campaign.

While imported forces can seek additional growth and challenges through increased difficulty settings, advanced game modes, and new elite objectives, the preset force contains a moderate amount of experienced units and an assortment of heroes enough to allow any player to succeed in this new campaign.

THE END OF THE AXIS OPERATIONS

1946 will be the final installment of the Axis Operations series. This is the climatic ending players have been building towards ever since the Axis Operations took its first timid steps into ahistorical campaigning!

Any campaign of the Axis Operations can be played individually as a standalone campaign.

Lots of poor design decisions and no improvements on existing issues, I'm afraid. - the strategic aspect has utterly degraded to building steamrolling hero tank units - you'll get all the new equipment in the first

While the game had its crashing issues during the first day, the swift response from the dev team when it came to fixing the save games is incredible. After 6 minutes i got my save game back and it worked! Amazing to

I have played the entire library of PC1 and 2. This DLC feels like I am bashing my head against the wall. I get it....the Americans are not going to give up so easily! But for me, elite missions are way too much

After 3 years the long journey of AO is over. This final installation of AO is not for the feint of heart as many senarios really do challenge you and sometimes not in a good way. AO46 takes your core in a final ''Hail

Panzer Corps 2 is my second most played game, so it pains me to write this review. I loved the base game and all of the Axis Operations... except this one. I have taken a break from it twice, and will return the next

Very dissappointing very few new German units, loading a saved Game crashes it sometimes. Some crashes ingame too. Needs a second hot fix immediatly. Wait a couple of days before you buy.
