King Gustav has ordered the 1st and 5th armies, and the 1st Artillery division to move into Oslo and occupy the city. They will first offer them the chance to peacefully become part of a greater Scandinavia that will benefit all. The 3rd Army is also being moved to Kristiansand on the South cost of Norway from Denmark, with a Fleet of 1 Dreadnought, 4 Battleships, 6 Battlecruisers, 5 Cruisers, and 10 Destroyers. Of this fleet 1 Dreadnought 2 battleships and the destroyers will then move to Oslo, meeting another 2 Dreadnoughts and 10 Cruisers there, in order to arrive with the other forces. The 4 divisions of the 6th Army stationed in Sweden will be moved to the Norwegian borderand placed on high alert. The 100 Thulin-K Bi-planes are also moved near the border, along with the 6th Army.

The Ottoman Divsion has reached Norway and is ready to begin its support in the Norway
The Division will head across the Norway-Sweden border and march towards Trondheim to take and hold the city. With Norway's armed forces undoubtably rallying to hold the Swedish advance the Ottoman Commanders don't expect to be resisted by too many soldiers but more armed civilians. None the less the troops are given the same orders as they recieved in the invasion of Denmark. Use full force against all resistance. 300 Maxim MG's and 4.5" Howitzers will follow the Division on their approach and artillery will be set up on the Trondheim city perimetre opon arrival.

The Greek aircraft after 2 weeks of hopscotching accross Eastern Europe arrive in Sweden. A day later, they arm up for an attack. They fly over norway military positions and strafe/bomb them. They will return, rearm and go out again on the same day. This is a very unexpected thing to do. They will hit airfields, naval ports and fortifications.

(As Norway)
In response to the first wave of Greek bombing all remaining planes are scrambled in an attempt to stop the bombers and limit casualities. Defensive batteries at airfields and other possible targets that are not otherwise engaged are being ordered to switch to canister shot, in hopes of shooting down the canvas and wooden planes.
The majority of the Norweigan fleet stationed in Oslo is moving to engage the Swedish vanguard in the bay near Oslo, where they can be supported by coastal defense batteries. The cities defensive forces, comprised of the reamining regular infantry and armed citizenry fall back from their bombed out positions, taking positions on the edge of the city itself. Artillery is being moved into the mountains surrounding the city to provide support and coastal defense ships are being moved up the rivers in the middle of the night and at first light begin opening up on the flank of the Swedish forces.
The garrisons in Trondheim have failed less well then the ones in Oslo. Men were drawn away for the defense of Oslo. The regular forces are attempting to create adhoc barricades and trenches at the passes to the south and west of the city in an attempt to slow the advance for when reinforcements can arrive. Civilian fighters help with the construction and engage in skirmishing with the Ottoman troops.
OOC: I need a little time to get number for losses, and would appreciate any help I can get.

The Greek planes come in for their second bomb run. They moved fast over Norway's fortifications and airfields getting ready to wrech havoc on the next target. A plane shoots a greek plane near the boarder. He losses control and crashed the plane. The half of the Greek airforce breaks from their attack runs and engage. While the other half attack targets
Casualties: 7 planes

Total Planes Remaing: 30
As the Greek planes break off to engage, the Norweigan fighters make a second pass, shooting at the exposed top/back of the planes as they try to peel out of formation and engage the Norweigian defenders. Bombers drop their loads on the Greek bombers, fuses set for aerial bursts, to try and smash the bomber formations before attempting to engage in dog fighting. Ground artillery opens up again with canister shot at the Greek bombers, trying to take them 'broadsided' as they manuever.
Losses: 5

The Greeks where much more skilled pilots with much better planes. There was 68 left and can fight, they all try to pull out as the Greek fighters swoop down on Norway's planes. Remeber that my guys do have aces. The rest of the poilts think that the artillary is dumb. Because what goes up must come down. One of the planes tries to pull up to quick and falls to the ground because it's tail falls off. The Norway poilts are outgunned over 2 to 1 now. Some of the poilts going down try to make a last effort to crash their planes in to buildings as they go down. The artillary had exposed it's position when it fired at the bombers. Several planes see this as a way to save some men and swoop down for an attack on it. Coming from what they expect to be the side.
Casualties: 5
Some of the bombers notice the norway planes over them and slow down so they are not hit by th bombers and now can angle upward. Others try to make them fly off by shoting their pistols up at them. Ohh by the way, they are attacking mainly the port with 40 and another 40 is trying to take out the landing strip. Ohh and How do you know we are coming for a second time? Do you have radar? How do you hit a broad side of a 75 mph plane with a peice of artillary?
OCC: You have what? 30 planes to my 68. What type are they?
