Musings on Normandy

[lycortas]

I am new on this board, but I recently purchased PzB Normandy after owning Normandy '44 for years.
Back in the day a friend and I played Gold Beach twice switching sides and neither of us made it off of Gold in less than 12 hours. Far longer than historical. The combat results simply do no work.

So I had played nothing but Gettysburg and Peninsula for a while but I finally purchased PzB Normady and with much trepidation I ran Utah... and the combat works! Then Juno... combat works.

I love big scenarios so I am always tempted by Normandy '44 for the campaigns, but i fear the combat results table will drive me crazy, while new(er) Normandy only has one day battles except Bluecoat I think. Quandary.
