Link to old news http://www.wingssimulations.de/ (2 of 2) [3/8/2001 12:08:00 AM] About Panzer Elite Feature Overview Introduction Panzer Elite follows the initial skirmishes between the German and American forces through North Africa, Sicily, Italy and Normandy. As a Platoon Commander, your primary interest is on your own and crew's battle performance. You must fulfil your mission objectives while preserving yourself and crew. You must also strategically limit the exposure of your wingmen. Survival of the war is your primary objective. During all these battles, you will receive news updates on events happening on other fronts to allow you to relate to events happening elsewhere. System Requirements Panzer Elite runs on Windows 95 and Windows 98 using DirectX technology. The minimum system requirements are: With 3D Card: Pentium 233MMX, 64MB Without 3D Card: Pentium-2, 233 Mhz, 32MB The game supports all 3d cards using Direct3D and customized settings for many existing videocards. Note: system requirements can change until project reaches alpha Locations North Africa After the allied landing in North Africa (Operation Torch) at the end of 1942, the Germans were threatened on two fronts. With resources already scarce and over-stretched, the Germans retreated to Tunisia. Playing for the American side, the player is confronted with pitting inferior technology against the German forces. Participating for the Germans entails strategic management of limited resources while preparing to retreat to Tunisia. Sicily Having survived the latter part of the Desert War, the German player is again on the retreat after the landing of further American forces. The mountain terrain proves a different challenge to the tank platoons compared to the endless regions of the desert. Italy After the landing of the Americans in Italy, the German side finds itself on large defensive battles. Meanwhile the American player will receive full support for the first time. Large city battles also provide an additional http://www.wingssimulations.de/aboutpe.html (1 of 4) [3/8/2001 12:08:05 AM] About Panzer Elite challenge to both sides. Normandy Using the latest technology on either side, the player finds himself in the midst of The Battle of Normandy. The initial landing of Operation Cobra commences with intense artillery barrages. At The Falaise Gap, large contingents of German forces are encircled as the player is confronted with the difficult and dense terrain. Game Modes The player has the option among various game modes: Instant Action The player is placed in a landscape and will be confronted with an unlimited numbers of enemies. The time of his survival will be his score. Single Scenario All campaign scenarios can be played individually in this mode. Campaign Default mode of the game. The player has to succeed in single scenarios to gain access to the next. Over time his experience will enhance his crews and new technology becomes available. Three different campaign length cover the three war-theatres available in the game Scenario Content Mission Goals The player has various tasks to fulfil in order to complete a scenario. Those tasks are not necessarily bound to historic missions but can be supportive or peripheral in nature. ● Primary goals are mandatory for mission success ● Secondary goals will improve the chance of being awarded medals ● Bonus goals add to the skill advancement of the player's crew. ● Hidden goals aid replay value for more intensive simulation players. Example: Missions Some example missions for better understanding of the variance of missions possible: ● Seize a village and hold it for 20 minutes until reinforcements arrive ● Destroy all artillery units you find ● Protect the convoy and make sure it arrives at a given place ● Support a platoon in first attack on a village and take the bridge north of it Any of those listed can be either primary, secondary, bonus or hidden goals. Landscape http://www.wingssimulations.de/aboutpe.html (2 of 4) [3/8/2001 12:08:05 AM] About Panzer Elite The landscape simulated in the game is highly detailed and covers terrain from North Africa, Sicily, Italy and Normandy. Details include bushes, individual trees, houses, ruins, fences and walls. The terrain features are not just for decoration and serve a real function. Trees can be run over and buildings or walls collapse. Trees hinder visibility differently to houses. Shells exploding leave craters behind (driving becomes more difficult), whereas smoke and dust lessen visibility. The scale of the landscape goes down to 2.50 meters per polygon. A medium-sized scenario consists of 4 million polygons and represents an area of 5 kilometers squared. With the ground detail and vehicles added, a scenario can amount to over 8 million polygons. Vehicles The player starts with the basic technology tanks from late 1942 and through experience and success during the course of the game more and more tanks are made available to the player. Modifications become available over time to fine-tune or modify the characteristics of the tanks. This includes additional armor, special ammunition, wet tanks to protect crew from ammo explosions, etc...

  • The Soviet-German Tank Academy at Kama
    The Secret School of War: The Soviet-German Tank Academy at Kama THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ian Johnson Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Master's Examination Committee: Jennifer Siegel, Advisor Peter Mansoor David Hoffmann Copyright by Ian Ona Johnson 2012 Abstract This paper explores the period of military cooperation between the Weimar Period German Army (the Reichswehr), and the Soviet Union. Between 1922 and 1933, four facilities were built in Russia by the two governments, where a variety of training and technological exercises were conducted. These facilities were particularly focused on advances in chemical and biological weapons, airplanes and tanks. The most influential of the four facilities was the tank testing and training grounds (Panzertruppenschule in the German) built along the Kama River, near Kazan in North- Central Russia. Led by German instructors, the school’s curriculum was based around lectures, war games, and technological testing. Soviet and German students studied and worked side by side; German officers in fact often wore the Soviet uniform while at the school, to show solidarity with their fellow officers. Among the German alumni of the school were many of the most famous practitioners of mobile warfare during the Second World War, such as Guderian, Manstein, Kleist and Model. This system of education proved highly innovative. During seven years of operation, the school produced a number of extremely important technological and tactical innovations. Among the new technologies were a new tank chassis system, superior guns, and - perhaps most importantly- a radio that could function within a tank.

  • Week 2: Game Theory // History & Origins // Industry Stats
    NMED 3300(A) // Theory and Aesthetics of Digital Games Friday Genre Discussions / Play Sessions Schedule, Spring 2016 Mondays and Wednesdays will consist of lectures. Fridays will be broken into two sessions. The first will take place in W866 where we will discuss particular genres and look at select examples. The second session will take place in W560 and will consist of hands-on gameplay (1 hour) of the games covered earlier in class. Some Rules for W560 Usage: 1. Please be considerate of others in the lab and those working in adjacent offices/classrooms by keeping noise to a minimum, 2. Please note that food and drink are not allowed in W560, except water if it is contained in a non-spillable container (with a screw-top or sealable cap) 3. Only students with official access are allowed in these labs (you cannot bring friends into the lab, sorry), 4. Please be gentle with equipment, consoles, and peripherals as a lot of the equipment is David’s personal property and much of the equipment is old and getting more difficult (if not impossible) to replace. 5. Finally, do not leave discs in consoles and make sure consoles and televisions are turned off when you are finished and that the area where you were working is clean and tidy. Notes on Gameplay Sessions in W560: Please keep the volume of the monitors and verbalizations to a minimum. Have a look at each of the games listed for that week’s gameplay sessions by consulting reviews/criticism, gameplay video, screenshots. As many games are released on multiple platforms and are often emulated, make sure you are viewing information for the correct version (platform, year).

  • Studies in Licit and Illicit Markets for Digital Entertainment Goods
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenGrey Repository Studies in licit and illicit markets for digital entertainment goods The thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth Joe Cox May 2012 Word Count: 68,597 Abstract The widespread proliferation of digital communication has revolutionised the way in which traditional entertainment media are distributed and consumed. This thesis investigates a range of aspects of these markets, beginning with a detailed analysis of the video games industry, which has emerged from relative obscurity and moved toward the cultural mainstream as a consequence of the digital revolution. The thesis presents an analysis of the market for video games from both the demand and supply side, investigating factors that drive the prices and unit sales of video gaming hardware and software. In doing so, evidence is presented on significant predictors of ‘blockbuster’ titles, the existence of first-mover advantages and the extent to which international markets conform to theoretical expectations relating to purchasing power parity (PPP) and cultural convergence. The thesis also goes on to explore the darker side of the digital revolution by examining the economics of illegal file sharing. Later chapters present empirical analyses of survey data with the aim of understanding motivations to participate in the practice to varying extents. The results are unique in the sense that they differentiate between a range of behaviours, such as seeding and leeching, as well as the illegal consumption of music and movie content.
