Our take on Heroes of Normandie
Small-squad scenarios replace the large-army structure common in strategy games. The game also combines tactical decisions with a humorous, bombastic tone, an unusual contrast for a campaign centered on the D-Day setting.
What is Heroes of Normandie?
Heroes of Normandie is a strategy game set during the D-Day campaign.
Players command small squads in scenarios of different sizes, using varied units, equipment, and abilities while making tactical decisions during fast-paced battles. The game includes three armies, the French resistance, and three campaigns. Quick battles provide pre-designed maps and prepared armies for single-player or multiplayer matches.
