Hi
Just a note on the Norway-thing. I dont think WW2 Norway is good
suited for epic battles as there where mainly skirmishes here.

Many old norwegian tend to overrate the resistance in 1940, but
concidering the call to arms went out per SNAIL MAIL the very day we
got attacked, and the fact that the guns where stored in one place
and the end-pices in another made any attempt to mobilize quite
difficult.

I think Norway is more suited for conversions to 40K, but somewhat
later came the combined arm raid on Måløy. This could perhaps be
interesting....

Hmm....

I will see what I can dig up.....
