I thought as much. Yeah, the Norwegian Navy will still be about, but does anyone know (for instance) where I can find listings of ships during WW2?

Thank you very much...
Looks like most will be captured, but some should make it into the escape with the French. Mostly small sloops and destroyers though...
Cool, thanks...

Oh, out of interest, what was the prevalence of English speakers in the Norwegian Navy...

Those five vessels, they were all frigate sized? that's cool. The escaping fleet is going to be small... it'll have a few battleships though, thanks to the French...
Well, my players are currently enjoying some gunnery practice. :D

Also, I think the rules are pretty much done. I'm not sure what else I can add beyond minor modifications...
Can anyone see anything? If you can download the doc on the front page, it has the full rules...
I cant attach it here apparently, because it is a .doc
