HOW TO USE THIS BOOK
This book is designed as both a historical reference for the armored warfare enthusiasts among us, and as a
primer for the novice. The history and development of the tank, covered in the first chapter, is provided in
order to give some background on the state of armored vehicle technology in World War II. The second
chapter gives much more specific information on the “current” technologies and how they were used in
combat. Chapter three covers the tactics associated with armored fighting vehicles in different roles and
against different types of targets. Chapter four is a supplement to the overall historical guide, detailing the
historical campaigns included with the game (for in-depth data on the specific scenarios, see the Gameplay
Manual, chapter seven). Reference data for all of the units in Panzer Elite is provided in chapters five and
six. Finally, a glossary of armored vehicle terminology and abbreviations is given in chapter seven. Before you
begin play, we recommend that you should at least read chapters two and three.
