Advanced Battle of the Bulge game

Well said. This has become a very enjoyable game in my house. It’s fun to trade off sides every other game since the strategies employed by both sides are so different.

Try to maintain a continuous line. If you create ‘hardspots’ where the Axis can get ZOC on the hexes your units need for retreating you’ll find your tactical retreat hasn’t preserved anything.

Those got gobbled up pretty fast.

:roll: As explained to me, Hasbro didn’t provide exactly what’s needed to fill out the reinforcemnt charts  :x but losses to combat quickly provide them.  :lol:

My local shop oredered one for me and it arrived Wed when I think Friday was offical release. You might give it some more time with your Toys 'r Us et al.

So having read the rules it looks like this game will be pretty unpredictable. Even putting a lot of dice on the table it will be up in the air what will get killed and what will have to retreat. Lots of things to manage. Can’t crowd the line too much and not give your troops room to back up can’t get any group too far from the supplies. The key will be when to blitz, and to keep moving before the Allies start pounding the snot out of your trucks with all those aircraft.

Looks like it will be fast paced with lots of action. That twelve sided dice system will take some getting used to. Quite a departure.

Can’t wait for my set to arrive.

those articles arent necessary …the rules have been on PDF since article 5.
