Panzer Pranks, WWII as it actually was in the movies is a 1980 board wargame published by Chaosium.[1]

Gameplay

[edit]

Panzer Pranks is a comedic combat simulation game,[2] which satirizes the conventions of standard board wargames.[3]

Reception

[edit]

Joseph M. Hurst reviewed Panzer Pranks in The Space Gamer No. 28.[2] Hurst commented that "This game is a lot more fun to read than to play. It is a satire on simulation mania, and uses both rapier and bludgeon freely and sometimes simultaneously."[2]
