Close Combat: The Battle of the Bulge Windows Campaign Debriefing Close Combat: The Battle of the Bulge Windows The new Strategic Map Close Combat: The Battle of the Bulge Windows This unit took out 40 soldiers and a halftrack. Probably a once-in-a-lifetime occurrance in this game... Close Combat: The Battle of the Bulge Windows Unbelievably, this one US soldier indicated (yellow arrow) was able to wipe out a whole German unit (green) AND destroy the halftrack (blue) before running out of ammo & surrendering to the German Heavy Infantry unit closing in. Close Combat: The Battle of the Bulge Windows This one US unit had *37* kills in one mission. Amazing! Close Combat: The Battle of the Bulge Windows Nice explosion. Also, look at all the German hulks littering the landscape. :) Close Combat: The Battle of the Bulge Windows This shows the humongous JagdTiger (burning!), and many other German tanks & vehicles Close Combat: The Battle of the Bulge Windows P-38 air attack! This time he destroyed a German tank!
