WWII ARMOR SKIRMISH RULES:
Panzer Tactics

The advanced rules add engineers, air support, and airborne and amphibious operations. Data sheets and charts cover 140 U.S, British, German, Japanese, French and Italian vehicles. According to the designer, battalion-sized actions can be fought in about 20 turns (roughly four hours).
