Description

A diminuation of the designer's Patton's Lorraine Campaign, this is at basically division level and much faster to play. Weekly turns as in PLC, 10mis/16kms per hex, 9 starting Allied units and 13 starting Germans - 17 units each side.

If Patton does well enough that Operation Marketgarden is cancelled and his supplies continue, either his victory requirements are 4 turns sooner, or the German player may choose to bring 1. and 2. SS PzDivs into the fray.

As in PLC, weather is important, with "Morning Fog" a possibility.

Same basic concept and system as Ardennes Petite.
