Comments
This is a module of Avalon Hill Game Company's hex'n'counter wargame D-Day - Smithsonian Edition, developed in collaboration with the Smithsonian Museum for their American History series. It is derived from AHGC's more advanced game D-Day (VASSAL module and Print'n'Play versions).

Tips

 * Use the turn track in the menu bar. It implements some automatic actions, and progresses the turn marker along the turn track.
 * Battle markers and automatic battle resolution.
 * On game start, select optional rules to use. Will be locked thereafter.
 * The rules are available, as a PDF, through the Help menu.
 * See also More information in the Help menu.
 * Run the tutorial (when it becomes available :-)

Implementation
This module is based on my version of the game (sources available from this site). This version a revamp of the original, including new text and graphics, written in LaTeX using wargame package. This package supports generating a (draft) VASSAL module from the same sources as the Print'n'Play PDF.
