Neural Dream discussed a possible scenario that mixes WAS and AAM for the invasion of Norway. I am slowly working on this thing, but I am wondering who would one use for the Norwegians? The brits? lots of questions involving this thing, but I think this is kind of an important place to start.

I've got 18 custom Norwegian cards. I've also got some French, British and German cards that would fit in.

Ghost, I'm also working on some pieces of this campaign--starting with HMS Glowworm knocking Admiral Hipper out with a kamikaze ram.
I don't know what destroyers they had, but I was going to use Javelin in Glowworm's place, with Chase the Salvoes added.
Want my class-sorted OOB notes? Also, how would you suggest a "Ram" mechanic?

If you want to use standard AAM cards, use French alpine troops against Germans. The Foreign legion fought in Narvik.

Former members of Polish Podhale Mountain troops who had escaped Poland after it's defeat by Germany & the USSR also served with Allied forces. These troops were the only other properly trained mountain forces that the Allies had besides the French Chasseurs Alpins. They operated south of Narvik.
Sharpe has a card for the Podhale Rifle troops.
There's a bunch of sources out there, including this one:
