Pictures and maps of my preparations for a Battle of the Bulge game, specifically the Battle of Foy-Notre-Damme-Celles involving British, American and German forces on December 25, 1944. I started working on this in January- February 2024 but other projects like Cangames 2024 took priority in March and the game did not happen in 2024, but maybe it will in the winter of 2025.

Overview of Battlefield
|
The scenario is based on an expanded Foy-Notre-Damme scenario created by Rapid Fire expanded using an old scenario called Celles from the Avalon Hill board game Panzer Leader and a number of historical sources including Charles Whiting's book on the Battle of the Bulge.
This game will be played in 6mm scale with one base representing a platoon with either Spearhead rules or A Fistful of TOWs III rules.
