Default Panzer Command: Kharkov vs. Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin

In case you missed it here is a link to a May 2008 article by Kevin Prouty that compares the two games:

http://tacticalwargamer.com/articles...ck_vs_cmbb.htm

The analysis includes playtests of essentially the same game run in both game engines.

The Conclusions:

Would I buy PC:K? Yes.

Is it a better tactical game than CM:BB? No, but it is close, and closer than anyone else.

Why would you buy it? It has a developer listening intently, has a unique command system, is growing, is completely moddable

What is the downside? It still feels and operates like a table top game. Phases, opportunity fire, dice rolls, a lot of subjective factors.
