Westwall: Four Battles to Germany (1976)

West Wall is one of the Quad series that SPI published - a grouping of 4 different battles of a war, using a set of standard rules with a separate set of exclusive rules for each battle. This Quad contained the battles of:

• Arnhem (Operation Market-Garden)
• Bastogne (Bulge)
• Hurtgen Forest (Roer river valley)
• Remagen (Rhine bridgehead)

As wargames go, these series were relatively simple and quick to learn and to play - playability was favored over chrome and complexity. Arnhem was actually released separately as a full retail product with mounted board.
