D-Day Dice

June 6, 1944: Allied troops storm the beaches and face a fortified German machine gun nest. Players control small improvised units that grow by recruiting soldiers, specialists and equipment as they advance sector by sector up the beach. Play uses simultaneous turns and dice rolling, but focuses on managing persistent resources — soldiers, items and courage — and coordinating movement and attacks with other players. The game supports cooperative multiplayer and optional solitaire rules, with planning across turns as collected resources carry over.
