Christmas Day found the American garrison at Bastogne surrounded. The Germans marked the holiday with an assault on the hitherto quiet northwestern perimeter -- with Bastogne as their goal. Spearheaded by Kampfgruppe Maucke of the 15th Panzergrenadier Division, the attack pushed off at 0300. They pierced the line of the 327th Glider Infantry Regiment and proceeded eastward, while farther to the north Grenadier Regiment 77 of the 26th Volksgrenadier Division broke into Champs and engaged Company A, 502nd Parachute Infantry. In response to the battle at Champs, Companies B and C of the 502nd were ordered to positions east of the village. Kampfgruppe Maucke split up at dawn, with the smaller element moving north to bypass Champs where it encountered and destroyed two U.S. tank destroyers at a cost of two tanks. It then unknowingly advanced to a collision with B and C companies. 

This scenario is designed for PBEM. When playing against the AI, it is best to play as the Germans, and the computer must be free to place the American units.
