BetaIcon.png This is a beta module.

This module is still being developed and may still be missing some features and equipment options. It is playable and most of the content is there, but some final touches and fixes for minor bugs are still in the works. It is probably safe to buy unless you crave absolute fidelity and/or very few bugs.

This is a companion module to the Normandy map that provides various AI units, structures, and general decorations for mission builders who want to create WWII scenarios (and consequently, a necessity for anyone who wants to play those missions). The obvious tie-in with the Normandy module means that the early focus for unit inclusion has been on tanks and static defences (coastal cannons, flak, barrage balloons and the like) for the German side, and on aircraft, ships, and lighter vehicles on the allied side. Vague promises have been made that, as the module is further developed, the unit representation will balance out and allow for scenarios that take place more on the British side of the channel.

As modules go, this is a highly specialised one — almost on par with the NS 430 — and unless you are very into DCS recreations of WWII fights, it does not bring anything to the table. Even for those who are interested, it is still a bit thin on content, even though more will be added over time. As more prop aircraft are added and more campaigns are made for those planes, the more there will be a reason to have this since they will all use these assets.

Still… barrage balloons to get rid of those pesky A-10s? Why not.
