The Allied player must rush his ground forces forward as fast as possible to relieve his beleaguered airborne divisions and capture a bridge across the Rhine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe scale of the map is 2 kilometers per hex and covers the battlefield from the Belgium border to Arnhem. The map also includes the area where the British 8th Corps fought on the right flank of 30th Corps.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMost units in Holland ‘44 are battalions, but some company size units are included.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHolland '44 uses a system very similar to Ardennes '44. It is basically a simple move-fight, I-go then u-go game. If you have played Ardennes ‘44 or Normandy '44 you will have no trouble learning the game. Rules such as ZOC Bonds, Determined Defense, Extended Movement, and Traffic Markers all make their reappearance. Due to the terrain of the Netherlands, special attention was given to river crossings, bridge building, and fighting in the flat polder terrain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"GMT Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40029388237,"sku":"GMT1713","price":40.17,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic3760409_lg_71cfad99-e5d5-43c6-847c-f597ca1cebe4.jpg?v=1578609281","url":"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/holland-44-operation-market-garden","provider":"vaibhavhospital","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
