German Ardennes Offensive 1944 is a turn based strategy game set on the Western Front during the Second World War, essentially offering the German side of the Battle of Bulge. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011. Last updated July 2025


The historical battle took place in December 1944 in the Ardennes, Belgium, where the American forces recovering in the assumed quiet sector suddenly (thanks to poor weather preventing scouting flights and bombardment) faced the last major German offensive on the Western Front. It was the largest land battle of World War II in which the United States directly participated.


In the campaign, you are in control of the German armed forces, and your main task is to reach Brussels, which would open up a route to the strategic port city of Antwerp that is supplying the Allied forces. This would essentially split the Allied armies in two, hopefully causing enough political tension to force the western Allies to consider signing a separate peace treaty.


The game is over if:
+ Germans reach over 180 Victory Points, or
+ Germans control less than 10 Victory Points.


What's unique in this scenario: You'll get MP Depots, which you must permanently commit to a hexagon. These MP Depots give MP to nearby units, forcing you to do long term planning about troop movements and trajectories of the future maneuvering.
