This is my idea for the Overlord2004 campain. It shows 4 G.I.´s on the beach - Omaha - providing cover for 2 NBB (naval beach brigade) taking care of communication with the incoming landing crafts!

Those NBB´s are a much overlooked subjekt!

Much is still to be done, like sand and rubbel on the beach - more grass and stuff on the dunes, a solid coat of mat varnish etc. - but suggestions are wellcome.


Overview:



The NBB´s:

I assume the NBB are the guys that coordinate with the navy for fire support and beach conditions?? Looks interesting. I don't think it would be inappropriate for a few dead GIs nearby to emphasize the imminent danger to the NBB.

Great idea, and truly in the spirit of Overlord2004; illustrating a little known but important aspect of the landings.
