BEGINNERS GUIDANCE This guidance is for those players that are not familiar with the rules and mechanics of the board game Unconditional Surrender.

SCENARIO: The AXIS player MUST conquer both Denmark and Norway in two turns; failure to do this will result in a win for the Allies. WEATHER: Weather is crucial to this scenario; poor weather will delay AXIS ground forces assault on Denmark; severe weather will prevent amphibious assault on Norway and air support. If there are two turns of severe weather the AXIS cannot win. LEARNING: This scenario introduces amphibious assaults and weather effects, as I have discovered through trial and error there is a specific mechanic for how to undertake amphibious assaults and these rely on the Surprise Attack token; see details below.

AXIS Player: Tokens: In this scenario the AXIS player has 2 ground, 1 air support and 1 convoy. Only 1 ground unit should be used to capture Denmark the other ground unit MUST stay with the convoy for an amphibious attack on Norway (do not move this token). The AXIS player also has 1 Airdrop, 1 Surprise Attack and 1 Surface Operation. 1) If weather permits make a mobile attack on the Danish ground unit; you may want to add air support to the attack; advance after combat to take the northern port. (Denmark will fall when the northern port is taken). If weather is poor/severe then you must assault the Danish unit in turn 1 and take the northern port on turn 2. 2) Once the northern Danish port has been taken you can activate and move the Air Support unit to this location. This puts the Norwegian capital Oslo in a 3 hex range allowing the Airdrop token to be used. 3) Select the Airdrop and place this on Oslo; this special unit may reduce the defense of the city garrison. 4) Activate the Surprise Attack token; this is the only way to assault Norway. Place this in the Ocean hex 12 this will let you make an amphibious assault on a coast hex. 5) Activate the Surface Operation and place this on the Convoy hex. 6) Activate the Ground unit on the convoy hex and select Naval Movement; then Amphibious Assault; this will then let you attack Oslo in Norway. You may want to use Air support. 7) Once Oslo is captured you can advance after combat/deactive your ground unit which will now be on that hex. You can also set the convoy to remain on the hex. 8) Resupply to end the scenario.

Norway/Denmark: 1) Hope for bad weather :-)
