Decisive Campaigns: Ardennes Offensive, the fourth wargame in the Decisive Campaigns series, will be released on November 18th. 

While we perfect the last details of the game, we want to share with you a couple of technical videos which we hope will help you have the best gaming experience with Decisive Campaigns’ latest DLC. 

Decisive Campaigns: Ardennes Offensive is a real, classic hex-and-counter wargame at its core, where the main unit of maneuver is the battalion. The Ardennes setting and the scale both have huge implications when it comes to rules, so make sure to check out this first video to know more about it.

The tank looks like a StuG III Ausf G ?

ok

On the image of the game, the base of the cannon has a strange aspect :

Probably the wrong genre for rivet counting box art.

[:D]

Really looking forward to this one. Is the manual available for review now?

Very astute, but the StUG types were not tanks. No turret you see

On the image of the game, the base of the cannon has a strange aspect :

There were at least two types of gun mantlets. The boxy one that was produced in the early and late production phases of the Stug III Aus G and the more rounded version known as the saukopf (sow's head). The box art is showing that version, more or less.

I hope the AI fort Ardennes is an example of the type of 'Hybrid' Vic created and added to an update for Case Blue,it is Faaaaaar superior to the original base AI...

Box art looks like a combination of the two.

Hopefully this is more accurate than the Barbarossa game. Very disappointing.

My art skills end with stick figures. [;)] The box art seems good enough to me but we wargamers are a pedantic lot, so discussing the gun mantlets on a Stug seems like a fun psst-time while we wait for the 18th. [8D]
