Normandy 44 Bunkers

RE: Normandy 44 Bunkers
Hi Gordon

I like playing the Allies as well as the Germans.

The Allies need only a little luck to get off the beach quickly. The main luck you need is getting enough Heavy naval fire support (BB/CA types).

In my games the Allies have always got off the beach by late on D-Day (1400 or 1600). But if you are not getting off in a few places by 1600 you are in trouble as German reinforcements start arriving.

I agree about the close in destroyer support but there were only few that did it. This direct naval support plus fire from a few tanks finally started to break down the German strong points late in the day. Most early naval fire was pretty useless.

My advice is to practice bunker busting / beach assaults and then give it a go. I originally found it tough to get off the beach but now I know it takes determination and time (do not rush it). Look for those weak points and any disrupted units, do not fatigue your men until you and ready.

I am always happy to play a game (as either side) to test out D-Day Ohama.

Having read a lot about Ohama on D-Day I still think that Eds latest version is pretty close to history, it has the right feel of the battle plus it is an entertining fight for both sides.

If you want to soften it I would make another pillbox a bunker that should be enough.

Cheers
