Suggest you set staff orders to ignore ships aground since
many ports have ships docked.

==============================================================
Nato has problems here.  Norway is just about defeated.  Although
there are bases left, there aren't many planes in any shape to
fight.  You command the Nato Forces, including US 2nd Fleet units.

The Soviets are putting together an all-out effort to destroy bases
and all opposition at sea.  Several Nuclear subs have gotten loose
and are expected to either try a breakout to the open Atlantic, or
attack England and Iceland.

A large surface force is also loose, and is expected to try to
attack Keflavik.  If they can knock it out, the route to the open
sea will be difficult for Nato to close.

Nato objectives, besides survival, include the location and destruction
of the surface units, nuke subs, and especially the sole surviving
large air base.  Murmansk Rosa is capable of operating the big
bombers.  And it is expected to be launching many long-range strikes
and patrols.

Heavy fighting in the Med, Pacific, and Atlantic areas have sopped up
all available reinforcements.  The Soviets must be contained within
the next two weeks, or Norway will have to be abandoned.  Evacuation
of those ground troops will be a nightmare.

The ground fighting has already caused the removal of much of the air
strength that the Naval forces need for defense and strike power.  The
Army is in bad shape, and is being given priority by the air forces.
If the Navy can't contain the enemy, those planes will have to be
withdrawn to England or France, leaving the ground pounders without
cover.

A Carrier strike is ordered on the enemy northern airbase at your
earliest opportunity.  In these desperate times, nuclear weapons use
is becoming a real possibility, just to stem the tide.  Who knows
where that will lead.

Don't get distracted, your mission is Murmansk Rosa.
