*** Battle for Bastogne III - March 19&20 - WRP **

Battle for Bastogne - March 18th, 19th & 20th



After the D-Day landings on Omaha Beach, the Allied forces pushed the Axis armies all the way back to the German border. Faced with certain defeat, the Axis forces pooled their resources and made a final push across the Ardennes mountains. The goal was to split the Allied forces in half, forcing a peace treaty in the Axis power's favor.

Standing in their way was the city of Bastogne held by the 101st Airborne Division. Outnumbered 4 to 1, the Axis general sent a letter to the Allied commander demanding his surrender. After short consideration, the Allied commander replied: "NUTS!"

What ensued was an epic battle few will ever forget...

Come out this March for the Battle for Bastogne and join arms with hundreds of other players on our massive playing field!
