S3 #53 - The Ardennes Wargame - Winter 1944/45 The Battle of the Bulge is about to begin. Germany has managed to position troops and aircraft for a massive counterattack on the thinly held Ardennes Front of Belgium. The Allies have the material advantage but Germany has surprise. Underneath heavy overcast both sides will fight it out over the holidays trying to control the important supply points and push back the enemy lines until they crack.
This series is the classic wargame with both sides moving ground units and conducting air attacks on them. Supply points and airfields will be important targets to cause attrition and slow down attacks. Aircraft are limited to specific airfields allowing each side to attack them and reduce the number of airframes in specific areas. Numbers are relatively even with each side having advantages, the Luftwaffe has the fantastic 262 jet while the Allies have their mighty heavy bombers. Grognards rejoice, this series is a complicated affair with tense planning and action long before the rest of the players show up to fight on Sunday night. The Ardennes Wargame runs on Dec 7, Dec 14, Jan 11, Jan 18 and Jan 25.
