Bitter Woods Deluxe Edition

Bitter Woods Deluxe Edition plunges you into the heart of the last major German offensive of World War II, the famous Battle of the Bulge, in December 1944. Get ready for a medium-complexity wargame simulation where each turn represents 12 hours of intense action. The detailed map, printed on sturdy cardstock, depicts the Ardennes region, bordering Germany, France, Belgium, and Luxembourg, with crucial roads, rivers, and cities. A hexagonal grid, with each hex representing about 2 miles (3.5 kilometers), organizes the movement of your units, ranging from brigades to regiments. This Deluxe Edition is an entirely new and enhanced version of the original game. It features updated graphics, larger counters (5/8 inch), and an expanded rulebook with new scenarios, variants, and clarifications. You'll also find a Players' Handbook, revised designer's notes, full-color player aid cards, and the introduction of Random Events to keep things interesting. The cartography has been updated, the Order of Battle revised, and even variant counters are included. If you're a wargame enthusiast with discerning taste, know that this edition has been acclaimed by renowned designer Danny S. Parker, who highlighted the beautiful tank graphics, especially the German ones with their autumn camo-pattern. It's a feast for anyone seeking historical immersion and challenge.
