D-Day in campaign question

[promytius1]

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask. I've been playing this game almost since it came out. Just got the Grand Campaign update and I love it - still going through the campaigns though, for the first time.
After a very successful campaign, finishing the previous battle with a marginal (Sicily?) I found D-Day with the two hard points and one inf. unit in Cherborg, and one inf. unit in LeHavre. That was it.
Is that right?
Thanks.

Hi,

I would say the question is in wrong place it would be better suited in the main Panzer Corps topic.
There is nothing wrong with it the scenario is in that way designed that you should fend off the attack mostly with your core army.

Moved to the main Panzer Corps section.

Fend off with core?
They are three moves away - how is that an amphibious assault defense?
So you are telling me that is the accurate setup? TWO ground units and two postwar memorial mausoleums?
To fend off the entire free world...how does that reflect reality?
The Allied paratroops get to land and move, the ships the air; all attack before I can move those two units...
Where's the beach landings? Where's the weather roll? Where's the LSTs on fire?
I did think it was funny I came in with two planes in core - all I could think of is that great scene in The Longest Day where the Luftwaffe pilot makes a single run on the beach, laughs and flies off.

But seriously TWO ground units for an entire defense force??????????????? :\
