Inspired by classic newspaper comic strips, this set introduces 10 super thematic Legendary Units, each with its own special dice table that replaces the standard one, and a deck of 5 unique cards. Forget seriousness for a moment and get ready to face the Bunker with a smile, even with the presence of the "Hobart's Funnies" unit, which is quite serious, mind you. This expansion is perfect for those who already enjoy D-Day Dice and want to add a different flavor to their games, whether playing solo or with friends. The new units bring an incredible freshness, maintaining the cooperative vibe and dice rolling we already know, but with a comical twist reminiscent of comic books.

This expansion is a sure bet for fans of the genre and for those seeking a more relaxed experience without losing tactical depth. The art and themes are a show in themselves, bringing a visual style that harks back to old newspaper strips, but with the quality we expect from a good board game. Ready to dive in? D-Day Dice: Funnies proves that even in war, there can be room for good humor!
