If the US player rolls to receive more reinforcements than he can place, does he just skip over to the other beachhead? For example, if the US rolls an 8 on turn 1, what happens?
The first six US reinforcements must come ashore at Utah Beach. The Utah Beach beachhead can hold only four units, so there’s no way for the US player to bring in more than four reinforcements on turn 1. The artillery of the 90th Infantry Division and VII Corps can’t land at Omaha Beach, even if there’s room there. They must wait until turn 2 and land at Utah Beach. The buildup on Omaha beach can’t begin until all six units have at least been placed on the Utah Beachhead.
