Germans Drive North - The Matrix Games version of West Front

Jevnaker, 68 km NW from Oslo, Norway (Battles in the North Tournament). After series of amphibious assaults Germans seized all mayor ports in Norway. But with powerful Royal Navy now in full control of coastal waters situation remained unclear. At least untill the sea and airlifted units reached Norway on the night between 10th and 11th of April. Having their ground force significantly strenghtened Germans were ready to go on offensive, The first task was to secure the flanks. Between 12th and 14th April main bulk of Norwegian 1st Brigade was driven into Sweden by swift operation of German 196 Infantry Division. At the same time commander of the 3rd Brigade in Kristiansand area also surrendered without a single round beeing shot. Having the flanks secured, Germans turned north to link up with the garrison of Trondheim. Two strong Germans Kampfgruppen advanced through Honnefoss and Nittedal in order to secure the flank of the main drive through Gudbrandsdal. Oberst Mork in command of all Norwegian forces in Hadeland tried to fight a delaying battle with all units available to buy time for mobilization of as many troops as possible farther in the north.
