About this game

This is a full version of Juno, Sword, 6th Airborne, which is a turn-based boardgame-styled strategy wargame set on the Western Front during the Second World War.


You are in command of the Allied force carrying out the eastern part of the famous 1944 D-Day landings (Juno and Sword beaches). The scenario, which models units at battalion level, starts with the British 6th Airborne Division dropping during the night to secure the key bridges and destroy artillery concentrations. The main objective was to seize the crucial city of Caen as soon as possible, which the German armed forces ended up fiercely defending with a handful of battle-hardened Panzer divisions.

Tip: Thanks to detailed historical battalion level simulation, the number of units can be high during the later stages of the campaign, so please use the settings to turn off various unit types to reduce the number of units if that feels overwhelming, or long-press "done" on units to mark them permanently done, or use the Disband action of the General.


FEATURES:

+ Historical accuracy within reason and variation: Campaign mirrors the historical setup.

+ Long-lasting: Thanks to in-built variation and the game's smart AI technology, each game provides a unique war gaming experience.

+ Settings: Various options are available to alter the look of the gaming experience: Change difficulty level, hexagon size, Animation speed, choose icon set for units (NATO or REAL) and cities (Round, Shield, Square, block of houses), decide what is drawn on the map, and much more.



Privacy Policy (full text on website and app menu): No account creation is possible, the made-up username used in the Hall of Fame listings is not tied to any account and does not have password. Location, personal, or device identifier data is not used in any way. In the case of crash the following non-personal data is sent (vie web-form using ACRA library) to allow quick fix: Stack trace (code which failed), Name of the App, Version number of the App, and Version number of the Android OS. The app only requests the permissions it needs to function.


Conflict-Series by Joni Nuutinen has offered highly rated Android-only strategy board games since 2011, and even the first scenarios are still actively updated. The campaigns are based on the time-tested gaming mechanics TBS (turn-based strategy) enthusiasts are familiar with from both the classic PC war games and legendary tabletop board games. I want to thank the fans for all the well thought-out suggestions over the years which have allowed these campaigns to improve at a much higher rate than what any solo indie developer could dream of. If you have feedback about this board game series please use email, this way we can have a constructive back and forth chat without the limits of the store's comment system. In addition, because I have huge number of projects on multiple stores, it’s just not sensible to spend handful of hours each day going through hundreds of pages spread all over the Internet to see if there is a question somewhere -- just send me an email and I will get back to you. Thanks for understanding!

Really enjoy the several games i have in this series - but particularly those that have a Canadian element. May 1 update - some of the text screens are wonky. Bolding that is unnecessary and distracting. Some boxes don't fit all the text now (particularly with the bolded "yes" "no" for turn end). Hope it gets fixed.

The latest in the Conflict series is a battalion-level simulation of the eastern flank of the D-Day landings. Your main objective is to seize Caen as quickly as possible, hampered (of course) by various German divisions. Given that the British failed to achieve their first-day objectives, it's perhaps no surprise that this game can be tough going, especially when you start running into German armor. But it's fun how it expands from just the 6th Airborne to a fight involving entire army corps.
