I tried to play this 5-6 times, It's end in rage quit somewhere around 25th...
My biggest problem start after every four or five turn PO get extra turn (it play 2 turn in a row)
then I get 2 turn in a row, it's stil playable until 20-21th december when trying to encircle Bastogne
and PO play 3 turn in a row putting mountain of fresh troops in front of my heavy exhausted army pushing
it 5 km every turn and badly damaging my precious artillery (without artillery i see no point of further agony)
So what cause this "extra" turns?
Also you should put american small arms in Skorzeny Bde
Anyway this is superb scenario

More than happy to do some test-runs in order to assist and improve the scenario for 'The Doc. Let me know what version you got and we can play until around the 20th/21st December. Drop me a PM or an email.

No side gets any extra turns. It's just that the side with the initiative can vary. See section 10.1 of the Manual (Variable Initiative).

Hallo Peky 1312,
Thank you for your interest and your feedback!

It sound like your problem may be the same problem Mantauffel faced...

Good luck.

Cheers
