July 8, 200619 yr Well, I don't know how exciting the D-Day landing for them could be. With almost no sea wall, the Canadians pretty much walked up Sword beach. They didn't ecounter much resistance until after the beach was secure, and by that time they were reenforced by so many troops, the Germans were desimated. However, they could base the Canadian campaign on something other then D-Day.
July 8, 200619 yr I wouldn't be surprised if the Canadian campaign was in Italy. IIRC the 1st Canadian Army was also the eventual liberators of the Netherlands, were key contriubtors in securing Antwerp. As for D-Day, the Canadians attacked Juno Beach, not Sword beach. It wasn't Omaha, but you could easily do a mission involving the events that happened in Juno if you wanted to. Including the counterattack from an SS Panzer division the following day.
July 8, 200619 yr You're right, they did attack Juno. I'm not to keen on WWII history other then the American side of the story.
