World of Tanks Miniatures Game: German – Panzer III J Expansion is an expansion for World of Tanks Miniatures Game released in 2021 for 2 players, 30–60 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling and Measurement Movement.
The Pz.Kpfw. III Ausf. J (lets just call this a Panzer III J for simplicity) looks like the poor cousin of the Panzer IV H but the reality is quite different. With a mobility of 3 and initiative of 8 it is similar to the Cromwell or T-34, but lacks the armour so only has a survivability of 0. Of course this means it is the cheapest ‘fast’ tank you are going to find this side of Prokhorkvka. Looking for more initiative or firepower you can always upgrade the gun to the 3.7cm KW.K 36 L/46.5 or 5cm KW.K 39 L/60 respectively, or add a driver with Preventative Maintenance to let you modify a defensive hit to a critical to keep the tank in the fight a little longer. Inside the Pz.Kpfw. III Ausf. J Expansion Pack, you will find a highly detailed, assembled, pre-primed plastic Pz.Kpfw. III Ausf. J tank miniature and tank card. Your tank can be further personalised to match your requirements using the five crew, module, and upgrade cards included.
