About This Game

Land your troops on the beaches of northern France, lay bridges to cross flooded enemy defences, avoid tanktraps, clear the area of dangerous minefields, overcome the enemy and claim the beachhead for the Allies! Tank Battle: Normandy is an historical wargame themed around the Allied invasion of Axis held in Europe on the 6th of June, 1944. Play as the Allies, British or Americans as many new units enter the theatre for the first time. Or, play as the Germans as they use their impressive arrays of heavy tanks, bunker emplacements and artillery to repel the invasion forces. The invasion missions are a careful recreation of the naval landings at Omaha, Utah, Sword and Gold beaches. The other missions are a mixture of themed and historical battles that challenge even the most skilled wargamers. From the lush and forested bocage and fortified beaches of Northern France where tank is king, to tight urban environs where infantry units can rule all, Tank Battle: Normandy requires the player to be at the top of their game! Enjoy Airborne Landings, bridge-laying tanks, mine-clearing tanks, bunker assaulting AVRE’s, Fireflies and Kangaroo’s. Typical mission objectives include; escorting units, holding positions, capturing points, repairing units and, the ever-popular, destroy the enemy army. The game system represents a major upgrade of the already successful engine used throughout the Tank Battle series and enjoys a number of new features and refinements.

I really like that there was some variety in the missions for this one. Sometimes you are escorting a group of engineers to fix a a plane so a general can escape, sometimes you have to storm a beach, other's involves building bridges, others defending a town, capturing a position or just destroying the enemy army. A very solid entry, if you liked the others then pick this one up

TANK BATTLE: NORMANDY This game employs the same simple and easy-to-play turn-based tactical singleplayer game system as HexWar's other releases in their TANK BATTLE and CIVIL WAR series, with novelties like amphibious landings, bridge-laying, mine-clearing, parachute-drops, a "historical" combat option, etc. Ranged combat with line-of-sight implementation and some unit facing considerations. Each unit has a maximum strength of 10, with attack capability diminished as strength is reduced. The scale is tactical but unspecified with no unit stacking. The combat system is odds-based with some variability in outcome, better than similar games which are entirely dice-based. No headquarters or command-and-control implementation. Many mini-campaigns included allowing you to play the U.S., British and Germans for many hours. Some scenarios are tough nuts to crack. Competent AI with three difficulty options. High playability, low technicality. If you like HexWar's other games, this w...

Pretty awesome large scale battles. A bit simplistic, but fun.

Nice clean little game. A few things I'd tweak like having it center on the units the AI is shooting at so you can watch it as it unfolds if you prefer. Reminds me a little of a bite sized version of Steel Panthers from back in the day.
