Flames of War: German Tank Training Company - Panzer Ausbildungs starter box. BATTLE FRONT GEAB25

Product contents German Tank Training Company

The German Tank Training Company by Flames of War allows you to field the Panzer Ausbildungs Verbände (Replacement Tank Forces) on the tabletop—the desperate units formed by officers, instructors, and cadets from famous Panzer schools like Paderborn and Bergen during the final days of the Third Reich in World War II.

Despite critical shortages of fuel, ammunition, and having to rely on a heterogeneous mix of veteran armor and training models, these units fought with fierce tenacity. Composed of experienced combatants and crews determined to defend every inch of ground, they did not surrender until firing their last shell or losing their last tank in combat.

How to use the German Tank Training Company in Flames of War

On the tabletop, this box serves as a complete and extremely varied starter force, offering a unique tactical mix of heavy, medium, and light tanks, tank destroyers, self-propelled artillery, and mechanized infantry. It is the ideal choice for both new players and veterans looking for a Late-War thematic force.

Take advantage of the striking power of the Tiger II and Panther tanks to halt enemy armored advances, the versatility of the Panzer IV and Hetzer, and the essential support of the Wespe artillery and Panzergrenadiers to control map objectives.
