Normandy '44 any good?

[Paul]

I would consider playing the large campaign hotseat against yourself; while I don't own Normandy, I've done this a few times with East Front titles and the grand campaigns are big enough, with enough units, that you (or at least I) can't really remember what you were doing with each unit on each side every turn.  Not perfect, but better than playing against the AI IMHO.  This probably wouldn't work with smaller scenarios...

I have read of a few people who have suggested that, but I haven't yet given it a go. I do prefer PBEM but perhaps this might be the approach for such a large scenario.

I have played this by pbem and it can work with the right opponent. I went into the game without the expectation of going the whole campaign! The enjoyment being in the gameplay not the result.
