1944 Battle of the Bulge

Published by Worthington Publishing and designed by Dan Fournie, 1944 Battle of the Bulge deals with the German Ardennes offensive and is primarily looking at December 16th through to December 25th.

It is pitched at the lower end of the complexity scale, with short rules, low counter density and relative fast play.

It has some rather nice game mechanics that keep both players engaged and which uses some concepts from Worthington’s Holdfast series.

Hold Fast - Eastern front 1941 - 42

Hold Fast from Worthington Games is a strategic level look at the German / Russian conflict between June 1941 and January 1943. It is a 2 player game using blocks, but it can also be played solitaire. A low complexity design with monthly turns, the game is the first of a series of WWII campaign games from Worthington Games.

This post will take a close look at the system and highlight some game aspects by way of an AAR.
