Panzer Corps 2: War Stories - Fall of Poland is a turn-based strategy game released four years after the base game, Panzer Corps 2, came out. If you’re looking for other World War II-themed games, check out Call of Duty: WWII and Commandos 2: Men of Courage.

Panzer Corps 2: War Stories – Fall of Poland is a DLC that takes place at the same time of the base game’s story. Instead of the Wehrmacht, you are now put in the shoes of the defenders of Poland. Defend your homeland and drive back the invaders.

Surrounded but not beaten

As the commander of the Polish defense forces, you have been tasked with leading the defense against both the eastern and western armies that seek to destroy your motherland. Be ruthless and show them no mercy. With new challenges such as AI not having any control over allied units, the game truly makes you feel like you are up against an entire army on your own.

With 14 new scenarios covering the invasion of Poland, 21 new units for Poland and Germany, ranging from modifications of existing vehicles such as the Panzer IID and TKS 20mm, new key character systems and featuring prototype aircrafts, the DLC adds even more content to the table of an already existing plethora of content from the base game.

Despite the new additions of content that the DLC has to offer, the game still bores the existing issues of the base game. Ranging from the high difficulty to optimization issues and the lack of clear objectives which can confuse players who are trying to enjoy the game's campaign story. Take note that this DLC requires the base game in order to be played.

Be steadfast and hold the line

With its mix of downsides and positives, Panzer 2 Corps: War Stories – Fall of Poland can be a hit or miss for some players. But it cannot be denied that the game is still worth trying, especially for those who seek to try something new or those who simply want to play as the David against the Goliath. The game also promises replayability.
