my first game

Battles In Normandy is the third game in the Decisive Battles game series. Battles in Normandy recreates all aspects of the Normandy campaign, from the landings on the first day to the final climax of the campaign at Falaise. Strategic Studies Group rewrote the Decisive Battles game engine for Battles in Normandy with a host of new special rules for amphibious and airborne operations, plus a huge number of other enhancements.

my first game

Post by lyceum »

Hey all.

Just finished the 76 turn campaign as the allies. Was pretty much a stalemate until about the 58th turn when I broke through in the west with all the american armour i could muster. Game ended with the germans reastablishing a line just across the orne with some newly arrived inf. divisions, everything west of that being mine. Conclusion: i was too cautious early on, never reached inland as villers bocage until late on. Carentan and especially St. Lo took far too long.

What are your experiences of the long campaign as either side?
