German Variable Reinforcments
At the beginning of each turn, the German player rolls one die. If he
rolls a six, the die is rolled again and he consults the following chart:
1-2: All units of the 10SS Panzer Division enter the game from the
East board edge.
3-4: All units of the 11th Panzer Division enter the game from the
East board edge.
5-6: No variable reinforcements available this turn.
Before the start of the game, the German player secretly chooses one
of the following victory plans:
1. Historical Plan
2. Operation Liege-Aachen
3. Operation Luxembourg
4. Operation Liege-Luxembourg
5. Spoiling Attack.
The chosen victory plan is only revealed to the American player at
the end of the game when victory is determined.
