Gone was all the ambiguity that I remembered... everything seemed incredibly straightforward and clearly explained. I looked at those printed chart inserts and instantly realized that these were simply last-minute additions that the publisher had thrown in to replace some out of date tables. And the mysterious 11-66 tables? Obviously it was a d66. I felt a little embarrassed that I had struggled so much with this game decades earlier. I decided to play through a quick scenario to make sure I really understood the rules.

Anyway, those are just some thoughts from a new, old player. I've got the original Panzer Grenadier box coming in the mail, which should let me play the final 12 scenarios in Heroes of the Soviet Union properly (without missing maps or counters). I may even check out the new boxed sets and revised rules after that, but for now I am content exploring the original Panzer Grenadier game. Glad I gave it a second chance!

You should get the 4th Edition Rules and Charts from APL. Technically they are sold, but for $0.

Matt is right, there are lots of people around who are willing to poke holes those T-34's of yours.
