What is Order of the Day: Normandy

Order of the Day: Normandy is an Operational level two-player board-wargame about the Normandy invasion of June, 1944 - playable in 45-120 minutes this is not a complicated wargame.

Played in IGO-UGO fashion, players move units from area to area across northern France and Belgium. Combat occurs at the end of a turn in any area where both sides have forces and is resolved with a draw of cards. The cards inflict hits on opposing units with 'bonus hits' caused by having specific types of units in the battle (Panzers, Rangers, Artillery, etc).
