So when you lose some of your top soldiers, it definitely makes your victories more difficult, especially with the level of your new recruits. Like the previous games in the series, you also need to monitor the health of your troops because the more battles they win, the more experienced they become on the battlefield. It’s these missions which are the highlight of Ardennes Assault.

Another interesting aspect about the game is that it’s not all about huge battles because the title also focuses on the valor of these brave soldiers such as being dropped behind enemy lines with limited supplies. In the game, players control the US Allied Forces in order to push pack the Axis and this standalone campaign revolves around three different officers as they attempt to gain the upper hand of the Ardennes region from the powerful Oberkommandos.Įach of these officers controls a different facet of the US military that include airborne, infantry and support which are all quite different to control and definitely a highlight of the game due to the different strategies that they use. So what is the Ardennes Assault? Well according to historians and more importantly Churchill, he described this assault as “undoubtedly the greatest American battle of the War” and the Ardennes Assault is actually the Battle of the Bulge which has been made popular by Hollywood. Needless to say, the developers have really captured this era well, especially the tension of your battles and moving your troops across Europe.
