Panzer Korps: any thoughts?

[alan]

Panzer Korps rules for the larger battles?
I am considering these rules for games at a level higher than platoon level for which I will probably use Blitzkrieg Commander.
Anyone able to give me pros and cons of PK, particularly ease of play for an evening’s game? What is the scale for figures/vehicles?
I have looked at some of their scenarios on line and see the forces required. When the Orbat says, for instance, 1x T34/76 Co., does that mean a stand of 1 model? I am just trying to work out if I have enough models to justify buying the rules.
Finally, is there a Facebook group for players of the game?

I’ve not played them but flicked through the rulebook.

AFAIK the manouvre units are battalions made up of company stands (so e. g. a typical rifle battalion would have three rifle bases and a weapons base, a tank battalion three tank bases etc). Same sort of scale as Great Battles of WW2 etc
