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.
