Operation Overlord

[falco]

June 6,1944 1000 hours report:

Allied troops are ashore in all three sectors. There are reports of heavy fighting and stiff German resistance however the Allies are slowly moving inland. Of more importance and concern are the reports that Germans are inficting casualties on the Allies at a rate of 2.5/1. Ike is concerned about wether the Allies can sustain such losses even with their superiority in equipment and men.

There are no reports of any Panzer Divisions as of this time.........can the Feuhrer still be sleeping?

Doesnt sound too good fer the Allies at this stage but I'm guessing it could be historically accurate for this stage of the battle. Certainly been some heavy losses at one or two points on my landing areas (Brits). Incidentally, are the points displayed in the victory dialogue box for the whole battle or just for each sector Von Earlmann?

To answer your later question.....Yes, I reckon hes still in the land of slumber!

Sure would be good to hear from one or two others currently playing this (especially the situation further down the coast where my gallant allies (Canucks & the Yanks) are landing!
