Normandy '44 (3rd Printing) is a regimental level wargame that recreates the D-Day landings on June 6th, 1944, and the intense battles that followed in Normandy over the subsequent 21 days. This critical period represented Germany’s last opportunity to repel the Allied invasion before overwhelming Allied manpower and resources sealed the outcome. The U.S. 1st Army advanced across the Cotentin Peninsula, ultimately capturing the vital port of Cherbourg, while British forces engaged the majority of German panzer divisions around Caen.

The game employs a streamlined version of the Ardennes '44 system, featuring phases for Movement, Combat, and Reserve Movement. Infantry battalions are evaluated by Troop Quality, and armored units by their Tank Rating. These ratings influence combat shifts for attackers and defenders, complemented by modifiers from air power, naval support, artillery, and formidable Tiger tanks.

Included are three scenarios: a 22-turn Campaign covering the full 21 days, a 7-turn Tournament Scenario focused on the Allies linking the landing beaches, and a scenario detailing the battle for the Cotentin Peninsula and Cherbourg’s capture. Rules also accommodate 2, 3, or 4 players, allowing flexible multiplayer engagement.

Note on 3rd Printing: This edition matches the 2nd Printing with all previously known errata corrected.
