A Time for Trumpets: The Battle of the Bulge, December 1944

Step back into December 1944, right into the middle of one of the best-known battles of the Second World War. A Time for Trumpets: The Battle of the Bulge, December 1944 brings the Ardennes offensive to life on a scale you rarely see. Every battalion counts, every decision has consequences. You play across five large maps joined together, with well over two thousand counters filling the battlefield. If you dare, you take charge and decide for yourself how the fighting unfolds. This game is made for fans of big wargames who love depth. You manage supply, and you have to account for tired troops, the weather and the notorious fuel shortage on the German side. There are air attacks, bridges you build or blow up, and famous events such as the breakthrough of Kampfgruppe Peiper. Everything is recreated with great care, right down to the terrain on the map that you will recognise from the real locations. Whether you play with two people or with a larger group of up to five players, you will soon be bent over the battlefield for hours. You can also fight it out on your own. A Time for Trumpets: The Battle of the Bulge, December 1944 is a true classic for anyone who wants to experience history and find out for themselves how things could have gone differently.
