Roy and Luc, 

thanks a lot for your help. After playing Ardennes 44 yesterday I need
some clarifications – perhaps you could help again: 

a) I assume that also armored units can attack across a bridge (at half
strength of course). Correct? 

b) Is there any difference between “normal” rivers and the Maas/Meuse
river (e.g. crossing at every hex for infantry units)? 

c) There are one +2 column Arty marker for each US Army. Do you draw
randomly the support markers or may you choose them for the set-up and
the reinforcement markers? 

d) I’m irritated about the lonely breakthrough marker. The marker stays
until the end of the Operation Phase (see 7.8 last sentence). But I
assume the players could generate more than one breakthrough result in
the Operation Phase thus you need more than one marker. Do I miss
something? 

e) It is really correct that even an isolated and OOC German unit, which
crosses the Meuse river and survives, gives the German player an
offensive victory?

Hi Norbert,

I don't have the rules with me but I can give a quick answer.

a) yes.

b) No differences.

c) at the beginning you get the +1, the +2 arrive with reinforcement
(heavy artillery). 

d) Yes you can have more than one breakthrough, I will complain to the
VV editor... You can use those from Golan if you have the game. 

e) No the unit need to be in command and in supply. But only one is
necessary. The purpose was to create a game winnable by the Germans.
