I have long felt that Norway could need some love. I posted improvement and correction suggestions to no avail, so I decided to do it myself. I mostly imported TTs from Arsenal of Democracy. To be honest I might have given some TTs more component skills than are realistic. I added components from AoD instead of replacing. Other improvements are giving Norway the more advanced naval doctrine from the 1914 scen to the 1933 scenario. Also, Carl Gustav Fleischer doesn't commit suicide in 1942 anymore. This only makes sense if Norway is annexed.
A good portion of the TTs here use pics from AoD and one of them is self made as it had none. I can share these if anyone is interested.
I'll work on giving Norway more of its historical military next, which have been neglected throughout the HoI games.

Carl Gustav Fleischer is a possible minister for Chief of Staff or Chief of Army in my opinion. More likely to be available under a different government, such as the right. I find school of manoeuvre and decisive battle doctrine to be the most fitting traits for him. He was also promoted to general 14. January 1939.
In 1939 Nygaardsvold decided he needed a new defense minister. He figured he had three options. Fleischer, Otto Ruge and Ljungberg. He chose the latter because of him being obedient. It was common for Nygaardsvold to prioritize politics rather than skills. I'm unsure what defense minister would be equal to in the game.
Norway were only mildly hit by The Great Depression. This leaves the 20% dissent in 1933 questionable.
