Our gallery has been updated with three new screenshots from Codename: Panzers, illustrating this 3D tactical combat title developed by Stormregion. Be sure also to check out both single-player demos, Utah Beach and Warsaw and the multiplayer demo if you haven't done so yet.

Damn! Initial reports from the outpost only showed armored infantry, but some serious hardware is headed our way! How could they miss two German Koenigstiger battle tanks! No time to lay blame, just aim the bazooka and get the tanks from the rear. Only a direct hit will destroy the 70-ton behemoths... Panzers takes you into the heady battles of World War II. Whether you play in towns with bullet-riddled buildings, bleak mountain landscapes or treacherous swamps - Panzers gives you real-time combat rampages in awesome 3D graphics. Create your combat force from over 100 finely detailed units, from a flame-throwing squad over a Soviet Stalin Organ rocket launcher through to a German Koenigstiger battle tank. You are the commander - demolish your enemy by using your skills in war strategy. Experience the nerve-jangling thrill of strategic gaming - in Panzers!
