D-Day Dice

D-Day Dice is a free wargame in which

players are soldiers trying to organize improvised units for an attack against the machine gun nest. Each player starts the game with a unit of a few soldiers and nothing else. As the game progresses, he will collect resources and advance on the beach, sector by sector, as his unit grows stronger and deadlier. He will succeed… or die trying.

This game is designed to be played with regular dice (d6), but can also be played with homemade specialty dice. All you need is a score sheet with a small battle map.

D-Day Dice can be played solitaire or multiplayer co-op, where all players play their turn simultaneously (and can even trade dice).

Although built around dice rolling, this game is about resource management (soldiers, specialists, items and courage) and knowing when to move your unit. Resources are kept from turn to turn, so the players can plan ahead (and help each other out).

The first Battle Map is called Bloody Omaha. Other maps include Gold Beach and Utah Beach.

Starcrashers Board Game

Starcrashers is a simple tabletop game of space exploration and combat. The author writes:

Star Crashers is a friendly game for 2-4 players, ages 8 and up. Each turn, players move their spacecraft around the table, exploring by flipping over Blip Counters that could be Space Pirates, Gravity Mines, Derelict Ships, and stranger things! When a player successfully deals with an encounter, they collect Credits as specified in the encounter. Once all the Blip Counters have been revealed and dealt with, the game is over- the player with the most credits wins. You can also try playing teams, pairing up with another player and combining your credits to see which team can earn the most!
