Alright, here is our current military situation: In the south we have 12 Swedish battalions of infantry, 6 of cavalry, and 4 of artillery entrenched around the Norwegian capitol of Oslo. At the start of the invasion they swept north in a surprise attack and overran Fredrikstad but were halted at the major defenses of Oslo. In the midian we have a combined force of 6 Swedish infantry battalions, 8 Finnish infantry battalions, 2 Swedish cavalry battalions, 1 Finnish cavalry battalion, and 2 Finnish artillery battalions. These easily stormed in and drove a wedge in the middle of Norway at Mo i Rana, cutting off supply lines and travel routes. In the north we have a force of 16 Finnish infantry battalions, 4 Finnish cavalry battalions, 5 Finnish artillery battalions and 2 battalions of the Finnish Nordic Guard. They quickly took Kirkenes and went on to capture Vardo, Kautokeino, Nordkapp, Hammerfest and Alta due to little or no resistance as most Norwegian troops were stationed in the southern sector. They only stopped at the heavily garrisoned cities of Tromso and Narvik because of stiff resistance. That is our situation, I want Norway under Union control by the summer.
