A completely revamped version of D-DAY 77. New Counters, New CRT, New TRT, New Rules, et cetera. All you need from the original game is the mapboard and a copy of the (3rd Edition) rules which are extensively modified.

IMHO a much more accurate representation of the campaign, which forces the German player to operate within the context of the larger conflict (Eastern Front) and also forces the Allied player to keep the pressure on or risk a negotiated peace in the East.

I invite your comments (pro and con) of what you think.

NOTES ON MAKING YOUR NEW CARDBOARD COUNTERS:

1. You'll need a rolling blade paper cutting board (which can be purchased at any Craft/Hobby store).

2. Print your counters off on a color printer (I have found that Ink Jets work better than Laser Jets) using 8.5 x 11 size adhesive shipping labels.

3. Adhere your printed counters onto a sheet of compressed cardboard (the cardboard backing of a normal pad of legal paper works great).

4. If you wish your counters to be a little thicker and have that "real" counter look and feel, you can glue a sheet of cardstock paper to the reverse side of the cardboard (regular school glue works fine just ensure that you spread the glue fully and evenly).

5. Allow a day to dry and then flatten (the cardboard will bow when the glue drys) by placing between two heavy books for a few hours.

6. CAREFULLY cut your counters out on your rolling cutting board.

7. LIGHTLY spray counters with a LIGHT coat of clear matte acrylic finish and allow to dry.

8. Enjoy your pretty new armies!!
