In the "Normandy" scenario, DO NOT take the Allied ownership hex, which is the airfield, on the south end of the map until you get your large allotment of prestige points at the 16th turn. Furthermore, do not allow the U.S. to take their victory hex or the scenario will end, so concentrate on defending that hex. On the 15th and 16th turns, you will receive reinforcements that will originate from the south, close to the Allied airfield. They serve two purposes; the first is that you can use them to take the airfield to achieve your brilliant victory, and the second is that they simulate the assistance provided to you by neighboring units. As the 16th turn approaches, watch your prestige points. Once your prestige points exceed 5500, you are free to take the Allied hex, which will be necessary to achieve a brilliant victory. No more prestige will be given.
