Drive like hell - the relief of Bastogne, December 1944
« on: 28 June 2021, 11:38:21 AM »
Hi

Yesterday we take a first play-testing for my Ardennes scenario. Background is the attack of the 4th Armored Division (US) to relief Bastogne at the end of December 1944.
Rules: Great Battles of WWII (a grand tactical system)
Scale: 6mm (Buildings 3mm)
Ground Scale: 1/8000

It was a very exciting game.

Good looking table and models. I like the snow on your bases. Creighton Abrams' Cannonball Run to Bastogne is a dramatic wargame scenario. Did he make it in your game?
You'll shoot your eye out, kid!

Hi. Thank you.
We played only the first day of the campaign, December 23rd. The CCB has captured Chaumont und lost at lot of tanks against a German counterattack. In the evening the CCA arrived south of Warnach and was swiftly engage in heavy fighting.
The Campaign ends on December 26. At this day the 4th Armored Division have to finish the breakthrough...
