Very Heavy Metal: Achtung Panzer! Out

I was going to post this trailer anyway, as advance warning of Tim Stone's forthcoming Wot I Think about Achtung Panzer: Kharkov 1943, which people are saying it could be the first genuinely groundbreaking tactical wargame since Combat Mission. Apparently. But when I hear that Paradox-chieftan Frederik Wester selected the music thinking about RPS, I could hardly not. He brings us footage of tanks, the shouting of Heinz Guderian famous book-title and Rammstein-esque synthy-Teutonic (despite being Swedes) racket from the band Raubtier .

I'm not sure why this is better than Dragon Age's metalisms. I suspect because it involves shouting about Panzers.

Oh - the game's available, if you want to go buy.
