About This Game

Features

• Weather is more detailed than ever before, with over 5 different Hex states that show different combinations of precipitation, snow cover and frost.
  
• Small villages and hamlets are now visible as well as height levels.
  
• Ardennes Offensive adds line of sight to the Decisive Campaign Series for the first time: hills block line of sight and Recon is now more important than ever.
  
• Hexes are no longer owned. You can expect enemy troops to infiltrate your lines without you noticing.
  
• The Supply System has been overhauled. This overhaul includes the introduction of traffic congestion rules, which can especially impact the Fuel deliveries to your Units.
  
• Intercept Fire makes advancing in open terrain a hazardous affair, but also brings dynamisms to the game with enemy Units acting while you are moving yours. Make the call: If you don’t want to leave your Units some Action Points then they can’t react to enemy moves the upcoming turn.
  
• You can now switch your Units between March Mode and Combat Mode. March Mode allows double the movement but makes your Units very vulnerable to possible intercept fire.
  
• When attacking a hex, you can now also choose between different intensities of attack ranging from a Probe Attack to an All-Out-Attack.
  
• Ardennes Offensive adds the Uncertainty Rule as an optional feature. If you play with this rule each Unit gets a hidden combat modifier that you will discover over time as the Unit sees more and more combat.
  
• It is possible to create Kampfgruppes on the fly, Scrap equipment and even use on-map Truck Units to transport other Units.
  
• Complete rehaul of the hex graphics as well as the Unit graphics. As a result, DC: Ardennes Offensive comes with a fresh-looking map, unit counters as well as new and matching troop and landscape illustrations.
  
• The interface has adapted left-right-click conventions in order to have a quicker and smoother experience moving your Units.
  
• The AI has been reworked a lot and will provide a solid challenge even in regular mode.
  
• DC: Ardennes Offensive is the first title in the series with accessible and easy-to-use editors.
