I'm probably going to Hunger Moon in March with two of my friends. I just have to get my Marker running right.

I know some guys planning on D-Day, they are buying pot helmets, fake grenades and such to really get into it.

I'll probably go to that too, but I can't plan that far in advance because of my job.

I'm trying to get the guys from the PMI message board to go the D-Day event. It's a little early but so far response has been pretty good.

We will be converting our newly acquired front field acreage into the beaches of Normandy for this production. A Landing craft will disgorge US warriors from 6 locations for their assault across 75 yards of wide open beach-head…complete with bunkers, tank traps, and disabled military vehicles.

GAME DETAILS

SCENARIO:

The beaches are still in the early morning light; the German forces secure in their protective bunkers, calmly anticipate the allied attack. In the landing craft, US soldiers nervously await the first wave of assaults. The landing craft gangplanks slam down, and anxious soldiers rush out onto a painfully barren shore and very uncertain future. As the Nazi bunkers spew a tremendous barrage of fire, the attacking forces dig into their tenuous hiding spots; wishing they could evaporate into the ground. Will the German defense fail? Can the allied landing succeed?? German artillery barrages will pound the beach, as machine gun fire rakes every possible hiding spot. The allied destroyers big off shore guns will shell the German emplacements. Success or failure for the allies will hinge their determination, and the capable efforts of paratroops inserted behind enemy lines. Once (or if) the landing succeeds, the fighting will move inland to the farms and villages of France. Scenario players will be able to interact with French resistance, Vichy French, Gestapo agents, even Berlin Betty - the Nazi radio propagandist. There will be house to house fighting during the night as searchlights sweep the fields.

SCENARIO:

It's late winter 1867. A troop of US Cavalry has been wintering in a ramshackle fort in Wyoming Territory. The western territories were largely forgotten throughout the civil war. Requisitions for manpower and supplies were often overlooked. The US Military managed minimal presence throughout the west during this great conflict. The North American Plains Indian Tribes interpreted this lack of military presence as adherence to treaties negotiated in the years prior to the war. This war is over now. Citizens and immigrants are streaming west in large numbers, and the Sioux consider this another broken treaty. The Sioux tribes have been waxing bellicose through the last 18 months, and now their anger has reached a fever pitch. The Sioux have wintered well this year. Not so the US Calvary. Spring is just around the corner, but supplies are exhausted, tempers have grown short, and tension is running high in the fort. The Sioux know this is the time to attack and destroy this garrison. The last full moon of winter; "The Hunger Moon". The fort commander is in the throes of depression and cabin fever. He decides right or wrong to dispatch his troopers on a frosty, grueling march through the Wyoming Winter to find help for the remaining soldiers and settlers in this region. The troopers cinch their belts over their gaunt frames and trek out of the fort. From the ridge tops, wolves howl in anticipation of full bellies. For the wolves, the Hunger Moon is just about over.

Awsome!
D-day sounds so much fun!
So there is it going to be 24 hours of continous play? Does anyone sleep? I dont know if these old bones can handle running for 24 hours! haha!
House to house fighting? That sounds cool too! Man, I cant wait!
So what are these "landing craft" going to be? And do the Allies really stand a chance, Storming a beach and all, Wow! But in the real thing they did come out on top!
