Tanks or no tanks?
One quirk I have is that I generally don't like tactical games with armor. i realize that I'm missing out on a lot, but armor rules just mean more rules for me to deal with and get confused by. Too many moving parts. Infantry, infantry guns, mortars, artillery, leaders...yes please. But tanks...I'd rather not. So, as I play through the scenarios in my copy of Eastern Front I will probably cherry pick the infantry-only scenarios.
Does anybody else out there prefer infantry-only scenarios?
One reason I like PG is that there are so many 1-map or 2-map scenarios. My game table measures only 32 x 21 inches, so playing most wargames on conventional maps has always been difficult.

Hmm, no tanks or AFVs in a scenario = no fun!

No tanks? Look at Parachutes over Crete or Conquest of Ethiopia.

i think you mean ANTI Tank guns... I have to admit, those Satanic devices, are indeed, fun to destroy.

Having bought Black Panthers recently I've had no choice but to face my fears and try to deal with the PG armor rules. And you know what? They are not that bad.
