petertheelf Wrote:Greetings All. I am about to start teaching a unit on D-Day in a year 9 History class. Most of the footage I have of the actual landings is very poor qulity and very grainy, and generally uninspiring. I used footage from 1946 quite effectively for the Battle of Britain unit and would like to try the same with D-Day. Is there any campaigns or single missions which include hundreds of ships and landing craft which more or less accurately depicts the landings. I am also looking for missions which invlove the airborne landings, with lots of pretty parachutes and German flak flying everywhere. I have tried searching the M4T site with no luck. If anyone can suggest a mission offhand I would be very grateful for the help.


There is a pretty good german based mission (110s and 109s maybe) where youre ripping c47s out of the sky at night over an airfield in normandy area with tracers everywhere and parachutes....cant recall the name tho
Also, if I remember correctly either Medal of Honor Airborne or Brothers in arms has a very spectacular opening to the game just like youre looking for...im leaning towards brother in arms road to hill 30: see it here:
