Its been awhile, but I thought I had already posted this turn...
December 21st brings more winter weather, frozen mud roads and the Allies to the brink of disaster. The breakout the Allied commanders have feared may be upon them.
The southern shoulder of the attack remains static with the Germans happy to hold a line and divert supplies and reinforcements west and north but the forward elements of Patton's 3rd Army are arriving and will soon be testing the German flank.
Bastogne is still stubbornly held but supplies are beginning to dwindle as they hold off several German attacks. West of Bastogne the 101st Airborne hold a thin line desperately waiting for Patton to drive his 3rd Army northward and into the Germans that are beginning to slowly push westward.
But to the north disaster looms as SS Panzer divisions somehow scrounge fuel and supplies and exploit the thinly held Allied lines north of Hotton and punch across the Ourthe racing across undefended ground towards newly arrived British troops.
Can you spot the opportunity that both German and Allied commanders are just realizing lies open ....
