Operation Overlord was a combined naval and aerial assault with paratroopers landing on both flanks of the invasion zone and the heavy divisions landing in between.

The Allies had run an extensive misinformation program that indicated that the Pas de Calais was the site of the invasion with Normandy a diversion to drag away reserves. Both Hitler and the German High Command were convinced by this ruse and this was to impact the German side for the first six weeks of the campaign. This Getting Started scenario guide uses three mini scenarios to teach various game functions; #01 Getting Started Hill 192 includes movement, firing, assaults and indirect fire #02 Getting Started Utah cover seaborne landings, naval gunfire and plotted air attacks #03 Getting Started Pegasus Bridge covers glider borne and parachute landings Each of these scenarios are games in themselves and will specifically show the challenges and tactics required when fighting in Normandy .
