Tank Battle: Normandy

Land your troops on the beaches of northern France, lay bridges to cross flooded enemy defences, avoid tanktraps, clear the area of dangerous minefields, overcome the enemy and claim the beachhead for the Allies! Tank Battle: Normandy is a historical wargame themed around the Allied invasion of Axis held in Europe on the 6th of June, 1944. Play as the Allies, British or Americans as many new units enter the theatre for the first time. Or, play as the Germans as they use their impressive arrays of heavy tanks, bunker emplacements and artillery to repel the invasion forces.

The invasion missions are a careful recreation of the naval landings at Omaha, Utah, Sword and Gold beaches. The other missions are a mixture of themed and historical battles that challenge even the most skilled wargamers. From the lush and forested bocage and fortified beaches of Northern France where tank is king, to tight urban environs where infantry units can rule all, Tank Battle: Normandy requires the player to be at the top of their game!

Since new update
Logistical issues

Cant deploy troops off landing craft to land. Will not let me select option to offload once at beach and door has dropped

Great game, but "Standard" is often "Difficult"
ScottMTKD

If anyone has found a way to win the Counterattack/Surrounded mission in Standard mode, I would sure like to know! It seems impossible to me, and I can win most other missions in Standard mode. Either there is a secret I'm missing, or it's just impossible.

Could be good with a little quality control

Early maps are incredibly long and overly complicated - as well as extremely difficult on the hard level. After that, they balance out. Had hex war done any beta testing at all, they would have realized they are scaring off future buyers with maps that take almost an hour to complete, and even then are almost impossible to win. The final map, "fortified," is apparently an Easter egg: it is mathematically impossible to win this on the hard level. Had they included it as a "bonus challenge" or something, that would have been ok, but to treat it as an actual map is insulting - people waste their time not realizing this is a joke. Hence the one star. Update: I thought that I’d give the game a try after a year, to see if any progress had been made. On the contrary, the morons who run this game actually made it worse! Now there are levels that can’t be completed even on the “casual” setting. Apple need to remove this developer from iTunes.

battle field ratio!

I’m not sure what the heck you guys did when you updated these scenario’s but your force ratios are all out of whack! I really don’t mind that the opposing force want to attack all the time, even when they are “supposed to be defending and The causal game aren’t really casual anymore?

Impossible. Counterattack/surrounded

Tried hundreds of times but air attack always gets my reamaining tank.

Broken Mission Kommerscheidt
Tigertank234234

Good game but don’t buy any of the extra missions because some of them are completely impossible. An example would be Kommerscheidt in the No Retreat campaign. You might buy a poorly thought out mission that’s impossible even on easy that will block you from the other missions you purchased.
