Well, inspired by a fellow TMPer, we finally ran the FOW Buchholz Station Battle of the Bulge scenario this past weekend. Check it out (with lots of photos) at Brooklyn Wargaming…

nice – evoked memories of my early involvement with basic squad leader (Avalon Hill) some 35 years ago, which had a scenario on this interesting situation. nice narrative.

It sounds like a pretty good fight! The table looks great, too.

Were there any changes you would suggest? It sounds like you tweaked the OOBs so they would be balanced, which is probably a good idea.

My table was 4' x 4' vs. 4' x 6' in the original scenario. This got the Germans in close faster. I think the whole scenario comes down to American reserves -- if they arrive early, then it's going to be an American victory; if they arrive late (like in out game), then it's pretty much a German victory…
