St. Vith Outflanked! 15mm Battle of the Bulge Wargame (Tactical Combat System)

In this episode we feature a “winter wargame” recreating part of the 1944 Battle of the Bulge, where elements of the German 5th Panzer Army are trying to outflank stubborn American defenders at the Belgian village of St. Vith.

Combat Command “B” of 7th US Armored Division is trying to hold open the last road to St. Vith, but they’re now under flank attack by an elite German “Begleit” brigade, including a battalion of sturmgeschütz assault guns.

Can the “Lucky Seventh” hold open this last lifeline to the vital American position?  Or is St. Vith about to fall?

The system being used is “Tactical Combat” by Mark Ritchie in 15mm.
