RE: Would like some opinions on some games
Stalingrad and Bulge are completely different scenarios. About the only thing they have in common is the snow. :)
The Germans in Bulge had a lot of elite units, and the terrain caused lots of traffic jams.
Stalingrad, on the other hand, is much more wide open, with large sweeping maneuvers and lots of kessels. The Germans are not weak, but they have nothing like the Lehr division, etc. And the cold is much colder, so there are many turns where you can't dig in.
I enjoy them both, but have to say that the only way I could see playing a Stalingrad campaign would be as part of a team, because it's truly massive. Bulge, on the other hand, is do-able as a 1-on-1 campaign, IMHO.
