Strategy & Tactics #347: Operation Holland 1944 – What If? (Game Edition) combines a detailed historical magazine with a two-player alternative history wargame exploring a dramatic “what if” scenario of World War II. What if Hitler had launched his major counteroffensive toward Antwerp through northern Belgium and the Netherlands instead of the Ardennes?

• Complete Game Edition – Includes both the Strategy & Tactics magazine and a fully playable wargame, blending historical analysis with tabletop simulation.
• Alternative WWII Campaign – Explore a hypothetical German offensive toward Antwerp, analysing how a different strategic decision could have altered the course of the war in Europe.
• Operational-Level Two-Player Wargame – Command German or Allied forces in fast-moving operations, with each turn representing 12 hours of combat.
• Includes Historical Articles – Features additional content on Cao Cao and the Battle of Red Cliffs, the Dade Massacre, and the Battle of Ap Bac.

The game examines the potential impact of a successful German offensive, including delays to Allied advances and possible knock-on effects on the Eastern Front. Players must manage divisions and smaller formations while adapting to winter weather conditions that limit air support.

Part of the Alternative Battles of the Bulge Series, this volume uses a refined version of the system to explore one of the key strategic alternatives considered during the final phase of the war in Europe.
