Bitter Woods: The Battle of the Bulge Designer Edition (Inglés)

On December 16th 1944, Germany launched its last, desperate offensive in the West. The result was The Battle of the Bulge, a brutal struggle in a dismal winter landscape set against an enemy imbued with a fanatic conviction that victory could be snatched from defeat. It was the United States Army's greatest and fiercest battle of World War II. Over a million men and thousands of guns, tanks, and other fighting vehicles were engaged. In those "Bitter Woods," fighting against heavy odds, the American Soldier slowed and then stopped the spearhead of 2 Elite Panzer Armies, forever emblazing themselves in the annals of military history.
