Heroes of Normandie

A wargame in the tradition of the classic Hollywood war movies.

Just beyond the Normandy Coast in the beautiful summer of 1944… The sun shines, the daisies bloom, the hedgerows stand tall. Early in the morning, distant machine guns chatter sporadically, and the boom of distant explosions rumble in the sky. Thousand of men battle one another and die, in bravery or in cowardice, as Heroes or simply as men.

In our story, we leave out the extras and focus in on the Heroes who populate the classic Hollywood war movies, from the supporting actors up to the stars. A Bridge Too Far, The Longest Day, Patton, Kelly’s Heroes, Saving Private Ryan. These films are our inspirations, and this is what we have given you in Heroes of Normandie!

In order to reproduce the atmosphere of these timeless movie classics, we stepped up the pace of the traditional war game. We have provided you with everything you need to make even the smallest scene explosively exciting! We want you to grin with delight as you mow down those invading GIs with your MG42, or when you bombard those Nazi swine with your bunker smashing mortar fire!

• 4 complete platoons and their recruiting options (2 US and 2 German)
• 2 Officers (1 US and 1 German)
• Tanks, light vehicles, heavy weapons, character traits, equipment and orders for both armies.
• 6 Heroes (3 US and 3 German)
• 28 wooden order markers
• 2 US dice
• 2 German dice
• 6 two-sided gameboards
• 1 turn counter track and its special markers
• 2 decks of 76 cards
• 3 destructible houses
• 4 defensive positions
• 1 rulebook
• 1 scenario book

Making a total of 255 pieces for almost 6 pounds of war game gear!

   Jeu excellent, mon enfant de 11 ans joue avec moi. Règles mieux expliquées que dans la V1.

   Mais pourquoi les graphismes de la V2 ne sont pas aussi caricaturaux et surtout pourquoi des pions et des maps aussi sombres !!
   Dommage … une V2 devrait être aussi bonne voir même meilleure à ce niveau quand on sait que c’était un des points attirants chez Devil Pig. Les graphismes et couleurs des maps était tellement attirant dans la V1. Plusieurs personnes même non joueurs de HoN me font la remarque quand je présente les 2 Versions en initiation.

   how to order now after BREXIT? I am living in Belgium, what can I do to get a normal price for your game-stuff? It helps if you can prove that it is made in the UK, for example?
   Thank you very much … Frits

   Bonjour,

   Julien de la boutique Les Dés maskés à Dunkerque.
   J’essaie d’avoir des boites de Heroes of Normandie. Est ce que vous l’editez encore pour les boutique ? Si oui passez vous encore par Abysse Corp ou un autre distributeur?
   Voir vous meme?

   Merci
   bonne journée

   Hello. Nous adorons ce jeu mais nous ne comprenons pas à quoi servent les engrenages sur les cartes ingenieurs et comment les utiliser. Les règles indiquent juste que la carte unité peut interagir avec des éléments portant le même symbole… C’est à dire ?
   Merci d’avances pour votre eclairage.!

    I never got my game. I funded it on kickstarter. Will it ever come?

    How is it possible to buy this game when I pre-ordered it well over a year ago through Kickstarter and still have not gotten it? This is massively concerning!

    Can someone help?

    I have a question with reference assaults: if a unit retreats backwards into one of the three squares, and the attacker then occupies the square the retreating unit was on, the retreating unit would still be in the attackers Zone of Control.

    Is this not an error with the rules??

    I just bought this game… there is a new edition already??

23. 9. The 17/01/2017 at 08:32, Jim said :

    This looks like a great game! Love tactical gaming.. love miniatures. Currently, I own a more than complete set of Memoir 44 (all expansions x4) and Panzer Blitz/ Panzer Leader/Squad Leader, plus supplemental units. STILL… this game looks very comfortable and engaging. Lots of room for expansion, and a create-your own scenario fight. What is the price point on their game?????

24. 8. The 28/12/2016 at 09:03, Axel said :

    That’s why we made a kickstarter to propose you a storage solution. You can find the terrain tile storage box here: http://www.devil-pig-games.com/en/product/boite-de-rangement-de-terrain/

25. 7. The 27/12/2016 at 22:49, Tony Shipman said :

    Would be nice if the company would take into account how the customer is going to store the expansions, base game barely fits in the box. Bought river set expansion, but no where to store it. Thought it was going to be in a small box, but no. Understand keeping cost down, but this is ridiculous. Only solution for me is to not buy expansions.

    Hello,

    The actual edition is always the one of 2014 (lot number finishing by 14). After the releasing of the Compendium, we will make another version I think.

    I have a similar question as Scott Gilbaugh.

    I see there is an “Extended Edition” available now of Heroes of Normandy? Where on the site can I purchase that version?

30. 2. The 10/04/2016 at 00:51, Scott Gilbaugh said :

    What is the latest edition of hon as of April 2016? How can I tell the most current edition by the numbers on the back of the box? Some websites say the first two editions have multiple misprints! Thank you for your time! Scott

    Du très bon boulot de la part de Yann et Clem. Je me suis procuré HEROES OF NORMANDIE il y a 2 semaines et j’ai déjà joué certains scénarios avec mon frère.
    La durée des premiers scénarios est excellente pour une partie d’initiation. Je pense que ce jeu peut divertir sans problème un vétéran du wargame comme une nouvelle recrue qui s’en va pour la première fois au front.
