Bulge 20: The Ardennes Offensive

A strategic wargame of the 1944 Ardennes Offensive, viewed from the headquarters level. The German player pursues a hidden strategic objective, while the Allied player uses intelligence to determine the attack’s true direction and avoid overreacting to false threats. Players manage staff planning through G-1 Administration, G-2 Intelligence, G-3 Operations, and G-4 Logistics cards. Corps-level units maneuver on the map, with battles and movement resolved quickly to provide changing reports from the front. Each game turn represents three days of the campaign.
