The 29th at Omaha Beach
June 6th, 1944On D-Day, the untested 29th Infantry Division, joined by nine companies of U.S. Army Rangers redirected from Pointe du Hoc, were to assault the western half of the beach. The battle-hardened 1st Infantry Division was given the eastern half.
The initial assault waves, consisting of tanks, infantry, and combat engineer forces, were carefully planned to reduce the coastal defenses and allow the larger ships of the follow-up waves to land.
We have finally completed the stand-alone scenario which is posted, but we also included the material needed to play it as a campaign using our Panzer Korps: Campaigns system. You will need a copy of Panzer Korps: Campaigns if you want to take full advantage of the scenario as posted.
Playing the campaign game solo or with friends is fantastic, and really places you in the role of the division commander.
