Harpoon predated Panzer General by 5 years. I bought the latest version of Harpoon (that is over 10 years old) on a sale from Matrix Games a while ago and it included a collection of old versions of the game, going back to some pre-release versions. That is a pretty fun collection, even if I never was a huge fan of the game and barely played any. I wish more games could be sold with a historic collection of old versions like that, but I never saw any else that did? They even included a menu configured with Dosbox to easily launch the old versions, and a short text describing each version. But Panzer General was fantastic, yes. I still play it every now and then. It runs quite well even on my phone in Dosbox. It was just at the end of the era when wargames was one of the big computer game genres, and probably outsold all the other wargames, but then as you say the genre declined.
