The acclaimed solitaire series of man-to-man combat in World War II, now playable in Paper Wars! This is a standalone scenario, with no ownership of previous Combat! games required.

The focus is on one of the most well-remembered episodes in the “Band of Brothers” saga: the D-Day assault by Company E, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division on a German artillery battery near Utah Beach. It is often still cited as a classic example of superior tactics and leadership overcoming a larger enemy force.

The system uses AI to make for intense combat situations as well as unlimited replays. As the paratroopers’ commander, you will attack a determined foe. Can you succeed?
