Calvados Coast

[lycortas]

Small update for today. It is 9.00am and I am getting used to how this all works.
My paratroopers are screwed beyond all belief, I see no way of saving Pegasus bridge.

Casualties at Sword continue heavy, but I am starting to make progress. One Bunker fell last turn and 2-3 more will fall this turn. I had not realized the Canadians had landed so much later than the British so Juno is still just getting started.

The glory is at gold, the British did not land as many engineers but they had piles of engineering vehicles, lots of troops and the German opposition is light. Anyone who says Rommel was a genius needs to look at his dispositions around France in '44. It is simply incompetent.

I used a fair amount of smoke at Gold as i had assumed the opposition was heavier so that helped even more. Look at this scene of 9.00am glory!
