Survive the Frozen Hell of the Ardennes
Point Blank: Winter Victory is an expansion for the game Point Blank: V is for Victory, taking players into one of the most brutal and desperate battles of World War II—the Battle of the Bulge. In December 1944, during one of the coldest winters on record, German forces launched a massive offensive into the snow-covered Ardennes. The exhausted Allied defenders fought fiercely to hold their lines and repel the onslaught.
Designed for 1-2 players, this expansion introduces new units, terrain, weather conditions, map tiles, and scenarios that reflect the harsh realities of winter warfare. The powerful Tiger II (King Tiger) and the M4A3 Sherman enter the battlefield, alongside fresh infantry squads, leaders, and support weapons. Snow and fog rules add new tactical challenges, while airstrike mechanics bring devastating new strategic options.
