Otherwise, why wouldn't the Axis player assign their toughest units to the beaches they know the allies are coming into?...

Thanks B. Hehe, grousing already, and you haven't even fought the beaches yet, lol!! The answer to that is easy. The Germans don't really have any "tough" units until 21Pz arrives next turn. They can shuffle around their VGs for regulars, but frankly if the Allies attack with 2 BGs per beach, and use their Naval Arty to liquidate the key bunkers, Allies should take 1-2 beaches no matter what's in there... I'm not sure how difficult this will be with just 1 BG per beach though... It should be VERY hard... But the Naval Arty will help... Will be interesting to see...

- The 8th Brigade with the 1st South Lancashire and 2nd East Yorkshire, with tank support from the 13/18th Hussars, will land on Queen White and Queen Red and establish a beachhead.
- From the beachhead, the three battalions of the 185th Brigade, with support from the Staffordshire Yeomanry, will march on the city of Cean and capture it.
- The 9th Brigade will link up with the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division coming from Juno Beach and protect the right flank.
- Finally, Lord Lovat's 1st Special Service Brigade will capture Ouistreham and then link up with the 6th Airborne paratroopers at Bénouville and reinforce the brigehhead on the east side of the Orne river.

Too quick to the punch, huh. lol.

Well, I got rid of the campaign file from my directory, but when I use the above link bit.ly , nothing appears.
It seems the game thinks I have it already. What now? I was guessing, maybe re-post with a new file name or path?
So it will let me re-download it?

Standing by,

@Gotta, can you ask the Generals to give you BG commanders with the order of battle for each day? I think this is also an important factor especially on the long run, so that teams won't change BG leaders after seeing who's in charge of the other side in a certain sector. It's also important so Brummbar44 can update the map with the players' names, if possible.

Who is the Commander of 7/3cdn? So I can email you with the password for the battle.
