Bergen in Red? Noob again

Joefour · 01-29-14, 06:10 PM

Hey Guys,

I'm running SH3 and am on patrol in June, 1940. Bergen, Norway is showing in red (enemy port). I thought all of Norway was occupied by that time. Trondheim shows up in blue as friendly. Do I need a clarifying history lesson or what gives?

Sounds like a glitch. Bergen was one of the first Norwegian ports to be occupied.

That's what I thought. If I wasn't so busy sinking Brits I'd stop in for a big plate of lutefisk and lefse.

Let's be honest, nobody stops by for lutefisk, especially a big plate of it.

Careful now, you don't want to p/o some of our Norwegian comrades. To be honest, I've never been a big fan of it. But I love pickled herring.

Norway did not surrender till June 10, 1940. The British and French troops completed their evacuation from Narvik and Harstad on June 8, 1940. Bergen should be blue instead of red though. I just finished a patrol from the Norway area May - early July 1940 and Bergen was blue for me after the initial invasion.

I'm on patrol off the west coast of Ireland. Date is June 27, 1940. To be continued...

Well,

It's mid July now and Bergen finally turned blue. Don't know the exact date, wasn't paying attention all that closely.
