Are you sure you aren't talking about Waddle Canal?
No. It would be the 3rd installment of BoB called "Battle of the Bulge 3D" where special rules allow the use of actual beer guts to provide unexpected and hidden movement of combined infantry, mechanized, and what the hell, throw in air units , called "Bierkreigs"....
On second thought, this might be a little too silly... :

Playing "what if" situations, especially with new toys, is an attractive proposition to me.
Oh, I know there is a market for late Cold War -I grew up on NATO, MBT, Team Yankee, GDW WWIII, etc. and have LnL WaW B&Bs, and certainly love playing the what if conflicts. It is what I do for a living- my last job was campaign planning for the "next" Korean conflict. I get it, and own Cold War and will probably buy Patton's Nightmare and Hammer and Sickle.

RE: PG Games we DON'T want to see
Don't forget to include the original Squad Leader. If you looked closely you could see the off-duty contingent playing SL on the messdecks. In fact, I occasionally saw our messdecks overrun with wargamers as well.
2,500 years ago people worshiped cats. The cats have never forgotten this!
