<t> I have been playing the game for ages and I have no strategy for Caen. The game clearly does not model warfare as well as it should because I have found that I cannot sustain forces on the far side of the Orne even if I pile all available Brit/Can divisions across. I end up withdrawing to the ...

<t> This learning process is great. I've given up ([8|]) on my last Overlord game and started the Mega 76 turn game. Things were worse on various beaches and I still can't see how anybody expected the troops to move inland after landing seeing as mine all have little or no OPs left?!<br/>

<t> Adam, <br/>
<br/>
Thanks for putting my efforts into their historical context. I keep having to remind myself that the counters represent the guys I read about in Ambrose's book 'D-Day'. <br/>

<br/>
I spent a lot of time playing the game last night (until my better half told me she wanted some sleep - they don't understand how important the ...

<t> Another quickie:<br/>
<br/>
