I have a question regarding the invasion of Norway and Denmark.
I DOWed them in september 39. On the first turn I took Copenhagen with a MOTINFDIV and tried to sink the the Norwegian navy infront of Oslo, with airstrikes. I also moved air and airbournes into the airfield in Northern Jutland.
I failed to sink all the norwegian ships and the turn ended without a single german in Norway.
In his turn, the allied player send almost all his planes into Norway along with plenty of reinforcements from Britain.
Next turn I pounded his air in france and managed to put four divisions ashore in kristiansand (two inf and two airbourne).
But to my dismay I observed several norwegian reserve forces popping up all over the map. I now foresee a very long and bloody campaign with me spending several weeks just to put sufficient forces ashore to overwhelm him.
Here come the questions:
1. Is there a way to knock out Norway on the first turn after the DOW?
2. Is the german sea transport not a bit low for this invasion?
