[1.0]? INTRODUCTION
Wacht Am Rhein II is a grand tactical simulation of the Battle of the Bulge that lasted from 16 December, 1944 to the beginning of January 1945. The battle was launched in the heavily forested Ardennes region of Belgium and Luxembourg. The American victory in this battle helped finalize the end of the Third Reich. The German objective is to get substantial mechanized forces across the Meuse River and maintain a line of supply to those forces. The Americans must prevent the Germans from getting across the Meuse River in strength, while minimizing the German breakthrough and Allied losses.
