D-Day Normandy is a Quake2 Total Conversion that brings the sting of battle to you from World War II. You do NOT need to own Quake2 to play, there is a free standalone version on the files page. D-Day development began in 1998 and provided the first gameplay of this type in this now popular genre. D-Day modifies the engine to the point where you do not even realize it is quake2 anymore.
