Fall of Normandy (German D-Day defense) is a turn based strategy game set on the western front during the Second World War immediately after the D-Day invasion on June 6th 1944. From Joni Nuutinen: By a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011

"The enemy has landed in force. We are fighting a desperate battle, but we are being overwhelmed."
- Generalleutnant Karl Wilhelm von Schlieben, commander of the German 352nd Infantry Division

You are in command of the German armed forces on the European Western Front in 1944 and burdened with the semi-impossible task of stopping the long-expected massive Allied invasion. You are supposed to push the Allies forces back into the ocean by eliminating all five landing beaches in Normandy while facing overwhelming numerical Allied superiority and enduring the constant Allied bombardment limiting your mobility. The troops at your disposal range from the fragile Ost (East) battalions and weak static infantry divisions to the battle-hardened Waffen SS divisions and Panzer VI Tiger formations. Can you make any real headway towards the Allied beachheads, which are getting reinforcements and replacements in a constant flow?

Fair warning: Thanks to the historical Allied superiority that is applied to the game, this is a really tough campaign to win. Any major mistakes are likely to result in the Allied tanks victoriously pushing through the remnants of your front line, and the fairly small scale of the map multiplies the effect compared to larger-scale scenarios in which losing a few hexagons is usually not such a big deal.

This game is effectively the opposite of the D-Day game, in which you play the Allies. The smaller map size makes the turns go by much more quickly than in some of the massive campaigns with large numbers of units spread over vast map.

"The situation is very serious. The Allies have a complete operational victory. After the first few days, we can only expect to slow them down, not stop them."
