About the game
Bloody 110 - The Battle for Clervaux, December 16-17, 1944 is the first game in the Tactical Combat Series (TCS) by The Gamers and it features the vital two day delay of the 2nd Panzer Division by elements of the US 28th Infantry Division along the road to Bastogne on December 16th and 17th, 1944. The actions of the handful of Americans represented by the game were critical in setting the stage for the more famous siege of Bastogne itself. It was their defense that provided the time needed for other units, including the 101st Airborne, to make it to Bastogne in order to defend it. Without this successful defense, Bastogne would surely have fallen and the road would have been clear to the Meuse.
