D-Day box art (1961 version)

D-Day is a wargame manufucatured by Avalon Hill first in 1961 and later re-released in [[1965, 1971, 1977 and 1991. The game depicts D-Day, also known as the Battle of Normandy.

The game makes every attempt to duplicate the invasion by the Allies of France on 6 June, 1944 during World War II, while it was occupied by the Axis Powers.

One unique aspect of the game offers the Allied player the choice of where to invade. Players may (and most often do) choose the Normandy beach where the actual invasion took place, but are free to invade at several other alternate locations, including the southern coast of France.
