Patton's 3rd Army: The Lorraine Campaign 8 Nov.-1 Dec. '44 is a simulation of the U.S. Third Army's November 1944 offensive in the Lorraine area of France.

The Series: Victory in the West Game System (SPI) started as a series of regiment/battalion level simulations of critical campaigns that occured on the western German frontier in the fall and winter of 1944-1945. Each of the initial games in the series simulate engagements between Allied and German forces in a period that was to mark the beginning of the end for Hitler's Third Reich. It uses variable unit strength. Units are rated for size and morale but actual strengths (fog of war) are determined by drawing a chit randomly.
