I watched this a while ago and cannot believe I did not click & leave a comment. On the quality of the info & play through added the game to my wish list and finally purchased last week with game arriving on Wednesday. Looking forward to playing over the weekend. Many thanks for your upload.
Great job Grant.... Really enjoyed your rule explanations and strategy thoughts. I can see where a series of bad rolls could cause one to lose their minds. . I don't even own this game or thought of buying it but I watched the whole video anyway, it was that compelling.. My wife thought I was nuts watching it on our main tv. Well done.
Setting up the divisions historically really makes maintenance of the cohesion track a real pain. I quickly learned to go ahistorical and match the battalions to each beach (i.e. 1/2 hits red beach one, etc). Makes the game a lot less fiddly.
Grant, just finally picked this up and have it ready to go. Thanks for the helpful play-through. Of course, I bet General Custer wished he could have had a preview like this for Little Big Horn! Seriously, I've been doing a lot of solo games lately and I know that an amazing wipeout just makes the later victory taste all the more sweet.
Isn't the highest priority the lowest number. E.g. 1 Red Beach 1 is highest priority position and 9 East 2 the lowest priority position. ("Key Rule:" on page 8, and "For example:" on page 9.
Hello! My very first question about those games is always: What a bout the balance? The 50/50 would be perfect or shoud I say: 60% max victories when experienced! Most important balance being when we perfectly know the game because if we reach 80% of victories we won't play it that much anymore, feeling the game his "solved" and selling it back! The perfect balance for me would be starting around 10% victories as a noob and reaching a maximum of 60% when experienced! - GG - CCN fan
