PG Campaigns & Commanders - Played them? Like them?

[Diocletian]

I have played them and like the rules a great deal. I think they add much to the game. Now, I have some sort of leader character participate in every game I play. I feel it helps to connect one to the battle. You can imagine the leader character fighting in the battle, making decisions, and leading troups through comabt operations. It adds alot of fun and imagination to the battle. It becomes more than an abstract movement of counters on the board. It does become a role playing adventure.

I find having too many leader characters on one side can swing a battle a great deal. So I personally limit it to one or two per battle.

So far I have taken a Red Army lieuteneant from June '41 to December '41 and he has been promoted to Captain. I have also taken an Italian officer in the Desert War from September '40 to May '41 and he is a Lt. Colonel.

Another part that I really like is it gives you rules to design your own scenarios. Scenario design interests me and I find it fun to think about a new scenario to place my leader character in.

All in all, I would not play Panzer Grenadier without the C&C supplements.
