AFAIK no such thing was done while troops were on the beach - the place was too crowded for fire support (the inital bombardments were overshot due to fears of hitting allied troops), and its not as if ammo or gear was in short supply all over the place. Without wanting to give away too much, the second wave contained a greater concentration of engineers (with thier explosives and heavy weapons) to clear the beach for tanks and self propelled guns, which were in the third wave.

Does that mean we can play as a tank operator in the third wave?

Oh, I have plans. Consider this a very rigorous test/shakedown of the system I have put together. There are plenty of other WW2 battles that could be used...

ебать! At least I found cover, I guess.

Move to the tank traps once the hail of bullets dies down and take cover

Spoiler: Character sheet (click to show/hide)

I ran an airborne RTD like this once, unfortunately, I'm better at playing RTD's than running them.

As it turns out, the pen was in fact a poor choice for melee combat in comparison to the sword.
So I just started playing this game and I accidentally nuked the moon.

Move up to the tank traps(I5) and fire a shot at 66F's riflemen.

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

I'll focus my scouting on 66F, by the way.
Hopefully I can pick off that Flak Cannon Operator.

Could you make the distinction between the players and stump posts on the map more clear? They are practically indistinguishable for me.

Sprint to Belgian Wall closest to G7 and take cover behind it. Use any remaining movement points to see if there any spare German infantry besides those in the machine gun nests coming our way.

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

Name: Private Ryan Hemsworth
Age: 30
Division: 1st Division
Gear: Standard M-1943 uniform, M1 Carbine with an average amount of clips, M1911 Colt pistol with 5 clips, 3x Mk 2 grenades, Ka-Bar knife, and a first aid kit.
Short Bio: Ryan didn't really like his childhood. His parents forced him into the medical business, both being doctors themselves. AFter some time, Ryan had decide he had had enough, and had ran away to join the army. When he had arrived though, he noticed that they were in need of more medics. So, he decided to sign up as a medic instead of a simple solider.
((Did someone order a doctor?))
