Overview
Description

Battles in Normandy is a historically‑accurate turn‑based strategy game that puts players in charge of Allied operations during the 1944 Normandy invasion. The game features a hex‑grid map, realistic unit statistics, and a deep order‑of‑battle system that rewards careful planning. Developed by Strategic Studies Group and published by Matrix Games, the title offers both single‑player scenarios and multiplayer battles, allowing enthusiasts to recreate historic engagements or devise their own tactics against friends.

Worms: Ultimate Mayhem brings the classic Worms formula into a fully 3D world, combining content from Worms 3D and Worms 4: Mayhem. Players command a squad of quirky worms in turn‑based battles across destructible landscapes, using a vast arsenal of customizable weapons. The game offers over 70 single‑player missions, local and online multiplayer for up to four players, and support for Steam Achievements. Updated visuals, new mechanics, and five distinct multiplayer modes make it a fresh yet familiar experience for both veterans and newcomers.
