The action takes place between July and August in 1944 and begins with Operation Overlord. The Allied forces of Europe decide to liberate France, and thereby gain the opportunity to control strategically important outlets to the ocean. The protagonist will have to land his fighters through the waterways and repel the enemy forces that have captured the port in order to gain advantages and request further reinforcements of infantry and equipment through ships. Coordinated work made it possible to open a new Western Front and significantly weaken the Germans, increasing the load on their troops and the need to defend themselves from several sides at once. The main series of missions ends with Operation Cobra, implying a strong breakthrough in the liberation of territories. The player of Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy will be able to control several types of troops at once. With a competent offensive, it is important to take into account all the directions in which the necessary units are moving, so that they do not interfere with each other. Observing the situation from close range will allow you to better assess your strengths and capabilities and, if necessary, redirect teams to help.
