Panzer Corps 2 Frontlines - Westwall

Panzer Corps 2 Frontlines - Westwall is an expansion for Panzer Corps 2 in which you command US Army formations fighting through the Siegfried Line from September to December 1944. After the German collapse in the Falaise Pocket and the liberation of Paris, your objective is to reach the German border and break through the Westwall. Early advances give way to increasingly entrenched resistance, making each stretch of ground harder to capture.

The campaign

The offensive first moves through the strategically important corridor between Maastricht and Aachen. You then fight through fortified areas outside Aachen, the Huertgen Forest and the Roer Plains. Later, the campaign shifts south to Lorraine and the Saar region, where US forces attack the Siegfried Line from France and advance toward Germany’s industrial core.

The campaign includes 14 scenarios:

• Schnee Eifel
• Wallendorf Bridgehead
• Stolberg Corridor
• Sittard
• Teveren
• Arracourt
• Aachen
• North Brabant
• Peel Marches
• Huertgen Forest
• Metz
• To the Roer
• To the Saar
• Saarlouis

Battles and tactics

The campaign’s difficulty rises as early victories meet fiercer resistance. Missions range from open armored assaults to close combat in cities and forests. Heavily fortified areas call for tactical precision and patience, and the campaign includes historic battles not previously featured in official Panzer Corps content.

New units and equipment

Field Armor Sherman Tanks are rare, improvised Sherman variants reinforced with sandbags, track links, planks and other makeshift armor. They have unique traits and improved stats, and are available in limited numbers through objectives and reinforcements. The campaign also adds Westwall fortifications, including Dragon’s Teeth, which are tough-to-destroy anti-tank obstacles that slow your advance, and pillboxes that become deadly in large, interconnected defensive networks.

The Dodge WC-63 is a lighter, cheaper transport option for specific infantry and lighter artillery. Upgraded variants of US aircraft are also available to help secure air superiority across the front. New visuals include custom officer portraits, briefings and campaign maps.
