"I can honestly say that if we hadn't played Daisen Raiku (sic), Panzer General would never have happened, period."
Kroegel says in Retro Gamer magazine, Load 43
Here is a video in which Kroegel talks among other things about Panzer General:
What is "Daisen Raiku"? According to MobyGames, SystemSoft had a long-running war strategy series, starting with Gendai Daisenryaku in 1985. Sega started their own derivated series Advanced Daisenryaku in 1991, using a World War II scenario instead of the fictional battles involving modern weaponry that SystemSoft's games usually simulate. (Seams that Daisenryaku means Grand Strategy)
Hmm, according to Wikipedia and others, Panzer General was designed by SSI Special Projects Group. I wonder who was part of that group.
