Description

June 6th, 1944. As the attack on the beaches of Normandy is launched, rival Allied Generals vie to be the first to complete their objectives. Every nation does it part, even smaller ones like Greece and Norway. This is your chance to take part in the Allies’ most ambitious and risky offensive of the war: Operation Overlord!

This expansion adds a lot of content and a new way to play D-Day Dice: the Campaign mode!

Campaigns transform a cooperative game into a competitive one. Players split into teams and race to complete different objectives before the others. Battle Maps are combined to create a larger battlefield. Choose from 3 detailed Campeigns, each playable in 3 steps called “raids” (a raid is the equivalent of a regular game). Get ready to dodge enemy tanks, capture German officers and more!

Solo play is built-in. A solitaire version of each campaign is included, with different and compelling challenges that take advantage of the larger battlefield available to you.

This box goes to 6, and you can dial it up to 12. Included is a complete set of Awards, Items, Vehicles and unique/Ranking Specialists that allows you to play cCampaigns with up to 6 players, or 8 players if you already own D-Day Dice: War Stories and D-Day Dice: Way to Hell. For a truly epic experience, it is possible to play Campaigns with up to 12 players with an additional copy of D-Day Dice or if you combine 2 copies of this box.

Greece and Norway are new playable countries are new playable countries with special colors and unique RWB bonuses. Each comes with 6 RWB dice, a full set of Specialists, a Player Aid, a Resource Card, and a Unit Marker.

Also included are new Specialists and Awards, additional optional rules that allow players to continue playing after their units are wiped out, and 2 battle maps: an inland fortress called Strongpoint Daimler, and a revised Gold Beach adapted for the Campaign mode.

Note: you need at least one copy of D-Day Dice to enjoy this product!
