I work on a scenario with the landings in Normandy with Allied PO. Current state:
German OOB is defined, Allied OOB minimal for the first wave units with inital objective path (up to objective 4). The airborne units jump, but the amphibious assault won't happen. The units stay in port. There is enough shipping capability etc.
Anybody a suggestions on how to get these units across the channel?

I can probably help, but maybe look at this scenario first, and if it doesn't make sense, get back in touch.

yes. I used this scenario as a guideline. working with the "non playable" areas etc. but to no avail. airborne is ok.naval support works, but not the amphibious forces ...

Amphibs are tough, and scenario specific at times. Sometimes you need Formations set to Ignore Losses, starting locations to be on a Supply Point, and Objective '1' to be the target beach.

Well that sucks! Maybe if you send me your file I can take a look and see if I can finger something out ? [Click my name to the left to get my e-mail as seen next to my name. Don't click on the e-mail link, it don't work good].
