Panzer Campaigns Budapest '45 Gold Released!

We’re happy to announce that Budapest ’45 Gold is the next Panzer Campaigns Gold release.

Budapest '45 is chronologically the last game in the Panzer Campaign series. Though many thought the Bulge campaign in December 1944 was the last German offensive of the war, that honour goes to Budapest in January 1945. With the Hungarian capital, isolated and besieged the Germans tried a number of times to reach the city. A lot of late war equipment including King Tigers, JS-II tanks and other behemoths took part in this late war, climactic action.

Like the previous eight Gold releases to date, the new Gold version of Budapest '45 includes the following updates and upgrades;

The game code will now be standardized on the JTS codebase. There will be no further support for the HPS version

All new ‘complete’ game map

All new 2D & 3D map graphics

All new unit graphics and counters on map

All new unit cards

All new in game sounds; weapon, explosion, background and miscellaneous

All released Volcano Man scenarios, including completely new Campaign scenarios

New ‘modern’ toolbar icons

Code update – disruption no longer halves movement during the day and is reduced by one third at night.

Code update – reinforcement ‘place all’ has been migrated across from the First World War Campaign series.
