During the Ardennes Offensive, Kampfgruppe Peiper faces encirclement and a desperate battle for survival against elite American divisions.

During the Ardennes Offensive in December 1944, Kampfgruppe Peiper ran out of fuel in the small village of La Gleize, surrounded and caught in a vice-like grip by three elite American divisions: the 82nd Airborne Division, the 3rd Armored Division and the 30th Infantry Division.

Behind it, 1. SS Panzer-Division 'Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler' did everything it could to come to its rescue and resume the offensive. A race against time ensued between the Americans, who wanted to annihilate the fighting group of one of Germany's most famous SS commanders, and the German soldiers who tried to come to the rescue of their brothers in arms.

The clash between these units of seasoned veterans resulted in a bloody melee around the perimeter of La Gleize.

Would Peiper be able to pull through once again?
