Possibly, but I won't be the only one hurtin'I will slap the s**t out of you.
<shrug> Mayhaps.Could this be re-worked to include more scenarios? KG Pieper is the iconic action of the Bulge.
[Perhaps from a German POV but No, Bastogne was, IMO.]KG Pieper is the iconic action of the Bulge.
This is likely the only way. Hand MMP a nearly-done deal and they might then take the risk to produce it.In essence, it boils down to who among us (active or non-active) is willing to go through all the KGP material
and update to current standard AND take it to MMP for consideration.
Yes!If it was a package of KGP I &II was there ever any geoboard of scenarios of the 1st SS Panzer Division during the Bulge?
Absolutely, Wacht am Rhein helped the Allied cause overall, stepping out from defensive positions and going on offense bleeds the defense line. Even if the Germans take Antwerp, they have to hold it, and then it becomes like German garrisons trapped in Brest in France. If they break out and try to get back to their lines its the Falaise Gap all over again.Sadly I don't think that even if 6th Panzer and also 5th Panzer had achieved their objectives the outcome would be any different. It was a wasted offensive. There was no reserve force to throw in and break the western allies completely. There was no hope to overcome western air-power, both logistical and combat, and the USA was building three liberty ships every two days. The western allies were paused anyway and would have overcome any expanded (and exhausted) German perimeter with ease once they recovered their lines. How then to make the "epic battle"? The German generals had convinced themselves this was the last chance to end the war with something less than complete destruction. I think the German campaign needs more cow bell, more potential for "heroic not-complete-defeat" (aka campaign victory). The module scope needs to be widened a little bit, but I don't know how to do that.
Lotsa toys and too much mist/mud to really be able to use them.....a recipe for frustration.I really wanted to like KGP but it didn't grab either of us. I can't understand why because on the surface it looked great.
I say the same thing about RB, RF, ABTF, BRT, VOTG, FB, and OWT....it didn't grab either of us...
