Blitzkrieg: Battle at the Ardennes description

Wargame based on the Board game and tells the story of the Battle of the Bulge during world war II (the Ardennes offensive the Germans).

It is very difficult to identify any points where the game is seriously different from many colleagues in the subgenre. There is a flat map of hexagons, each color of the hexagon corresponds to a specific territorial area, which he refers (forest, field, city), influencing on conditions of warfare. Available troops include infantry, Navy, air force, artillery and missile parts.

Unfortunately, due to the not bad, but it is not very clear graphics and heavy this thing is playable only for the most avid fans of the subgenre.
