About the game
Hey folks! If you're a fan of D-Day Dice and want to add a wartime reporting flavor to your gameplay, this mini-expansion is for you! D-Day Dice: Press Corps pays tribute to the brave journalists who covered World War II on the front lines, risking everything to bring the news to the public. Think of iconic figures like Robert Cappa and Ernie Pyle – without them, our understanding of this conflict would be much poorer, right?

This expansion not only adds brand-new content to make the game even more exciting but also has a brilliant twist: if you don't own D-Day Dice: Overlord, you can still enjoy the campaigns from To Do or Die perfectly fine! With new cards and mechanics inspired by the world of journalism, you'll feel the pressure of covering historical events while your allies fight on the battlefield. It's a different way to approach the war, focusing on information and its impact. Get your dice ready, grab your (imaginary, of course) notepad, and let's cover this story!
