Mein Panzer Junior
About this game
A game specifically designed for young wargamers! It is just a 4 page book. Incorporating three levels of play, Mein Panzer Junior can be played by children as young as 5 years old, or upwards of 12 years old or more. Level One introduces youngsters to the basic fundamentals of wargaming, using only a single d6 per player and a common 6" or 12" ruler. Resolution of movement and shooting is simple and easily accomplished by the youngest players on a tank by tank basis. Level Two expands upon the previous level slightly by adding Tank Units and the concept of “hits” and “kills”. Play is still extremely simple with only a few additional rules. Level Three is almost a full featured game including game turns and distinction between the different types of tanks. At this level, players must be able to perform simple subtraction relatively quickly to maintain a smooth, and interesting, game.
