It is. Also the reason why Normandy is one of my favourite PzC games.
It does have some niggles, like the initial invasion being a bit of a crap-shoot.
Mainly a case of the system not really being geared for something so specialized.
And the attritional nature of the campaign isn't for everybody.
But it does mirror the historic challenges beautifully.
Allies have an enormous amount of firepower available, but the terrain makes it very hard to achieve a breakthrough until they've slugged their way through the bocage.
The Germans on the other hand, while capable of temporarily stopping said breakthrough, have to watch their army being inexorably ground down.
At some point something will eventually snap, the only question is when and where.
