About this app

Invasion of Norway 1940 is a turn based strategy game set on Norway and its coastal waters during the Second World War. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011


You are in command of the German land and naval forces attempting to seize Norway (Operation Weserubung) before the Allies do. You'll be battling the Norwegian Armed Forces, the British Royal Navy, and the multiple Allied landings that try to disrupt the German operation.

Prepare for a fierce naval battle as you take command of the German warships and fuel tankers! Your task is to support your troops in the far north, where the rugged terrain and harsh weather make logistics a nightmare. While the southern landings in Norway may seem like a walk in the park with short supply lines, the real challenge lies in the treacherous north. The British warships pose a constant threat, ready to cut off your vital naval supply route to the northern landings. But the real test of your strategic prowess comes with the northernmost landing near Narvik. Here, you'll have to tread carefully, for one wrong move could spell disaster for your entire fleet. If the Royal Navy gains an upper hand in the area, you'll be forced to make a difficult decision: scuttle your warships to gain weak sailor units or risk losing everything in a battle in which the odds are increasingly worsening.

FEATURES:

+ Historical accuracy: Campaign mirrors the historical setup.

+ Long-lasting: Thanks to in-built variation and the game's smart AI technology, each game provides a unique war gaming experience.

+ Challenging AI: Instead of just always attacking on direct line towards the target, the AI opponent balances between strategic goals and smaller tasks like cutting off nearby units.


In order to be a victorious general, you must learn to coordinate your attacks in two ways. First, as adjacent units give support to an attacking unit, keep your units in groups in order to gain local superiority. Secondly, it is rarely the best idea to use brute force when it is possible to encircle the enemy and cut off its supply lines instead.

Conflict-Series by Joni Nuutinen has offered highly rated Android-only strategy board games since 2011, and even the first scenarios are still actively updated. The campaigns are based on the time-tested gaming mechanics TBS (turn-based strategy) enthusiasts are familiar with from both the classic PC war games and legendary tabletop board games. I want to thank the fans for all the well thought-out suggestions over the years which have allowed these campaigns to improve at a much higher rate than what any solo indie developer could dream of. If you have advice on how to improve this board game series please use email, this way we can have a constructive back and forth chat without the limits of the store's comment system. In addition, because I have huge number of projects on multiple stores, it’s just not sensible to spend handful of hours each day going through hundreds of pages spread all over the Internet to see if there is a question somewhere -- just send me an email and I will get back to you. Thanks for understanding!
