About this expansion

D-Day Dice (Second Edition): War Stories is an expansion for 1–5 players, with games lasting around 45 minutes, that adds six independent modules to the base game. Use them individually or combine them to create new challenges during the Normandy landings.

The War Stories module introduces scenario cards with special objectives and effects. Tokens can represent artillery fire, dead officers to find, a rising tide, or bonuses for taking particular actions. Each game can therefore present a different story on the battlefield.

  • Legendary Units: Play historical units from the Normandy landings, each with exclusive Legendary Specialists, Legendary Items, and its own RWB bonuses.
  • Poland: Add a fifth player color, black, with its own dice, Specialists, and RWB bonuses.
  • Servicemen: Recruit infantrymen temporarily, then discard their cards to add their displayed dice results to your Final Tally.
  • Last Man Standing: Begin with a full Unit and roll each turn to determine how many soldiers are lost before the final assault on the Bunker.
  • Campaign Mode: Play a large competitive/cooperative scenario across six Battle Maps, with two teams racing upward while facing obstacles, objectives, and special rules.

The box also contains six Battle Maps focused on airborne operations, plus the Pathfinder and a Paratrooper Specialist in a different version for every color. The Last Man Standing module adds the Crackshot Specialist and player aids with new RWB tables.

With its modular structure and varied objectives, War Stories gives D-Day Dice players new ways to approach the battlefield. Campaign Mode supports up to eight players when two copies of the base game are available, while the other modules can be added to the base game as desired.
