A wargame about the unsuccessful German offensive in Ardennes 1944-45. The game uses rules of the "WB95" (Great Battles 1939-1945); I-go-you-go system designed for dealing with large battles of World War II. Counters represent regiments (Germans) or regiments/divisions/brigades (US & Br), one hex represents about 2500m, one turn represents one day.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 3.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
