Hegra Fortress


A WWII mountain fortress, this position was hard to capture by the Germans, who opted to use air bombardment and artillery to smash holes, before attacking with waves of infantry. However, the fighting inside the bunkers was cut throat and bloodthirsty.

City of Narvik


Very heavy fighting took place here, as the German troops were isolated in the Narvik region. Outnumbered nearly ten to one at the beginning, they were reinforced by Para drops, and were able to retake the city, fighting house to house, and room to room.
