The Battle of the Bulge was a slugfest. It was as desperate as the cauldrons of Kursk or Stalingrad. Desperate to reach far off Antwerp, Bastogne was designated as the key to the entire southern shoulder. The 5th Panzer Army under Manteuffel had to get there quickly if they were to prevent Patton's 3rd army from seizing the all important road hub, and threatening the entire operation from within. For both sides, it was BASTOGNE OR BUST!

Danny Parker, an expert historian of the real life Battle of the Bulge, praised the table top adaptation. He writes: "For the reincarnation of his simple-is-good "Bastogne or Bust" (BoB) game on the German Ardennes Offensive of 1944-45, Mr. Hendrix has painstakingly used data [that] I supplied from research spanning many years in a thorough and exhaustive evaluation of the combat strengths of the various units participating.

"[Other gamers] loving BoB's streamlined approach will know that whatever the simplifications, the cardboard warriors being used have been thoroughly vetted. As it was really "Antwerp or Bust" for Hitler, the German player can see if they can reach that big river before [the game ends. Meanwhile,] the American player will benefit from the strength of some of the veteran formations: 1st Infantry, the airborne divisions, 2nd Armored, and the Powerful XXX Corps. But enjoyment is the key for the game. Mr. Hendrix has devised [a tactically fun title] and tabletop gamers may revel in the refinements."
