Battle of the Bulge would've been on top of (or under) too many dots. And Sink the Bismark would've been hard to place: Denmark Strait? Bay of Biscay? Somewhere in between? The North Sea?

Where is the battle of the Bulge? A great game
Also, sink the Bismark is nowhere to be found.
The rest is great

I did miss both of those.

Actually, "A Bridge Too Far" wouldn't have fit well, with all the other dots in Europe. This was one of my earliest games. If I were to do it today, I might make a map with an oversized Europe. I have used similar technique in some of my more recent games, like

subnational regions

By the way, my similar game "World War II by the Book" does have the "A Bridge Too Far", but I no doubt had to leave out some other dot for that.

But the River Kwai, I just missed both times. Too bad, because that area of the map was not crowded.

I also don't see the movie: A bridge to far, great movie and a big part of it is recorded in my village.

Hey, you forgot "The Bridge on the River Kwai". One of my favorites.
