Check Your 6 scenario and campaign book provides three campaigns and 25 scenarios covering Operation Weserubung Nord, the German invasion of Norway in the spring of 1940.

The next six scenarios cover the month of May and include a Stuka attack against HMS Ark Royal, the deployment of 46 Squadron (Hurricanes) and the second deployment of 263 Squadron (Gladiators). The book ends with eight scenarios depicting the last aerial combats before the Allied withdrawal from Norway, British attempts to get revenge upon KMS Scharnhorst for the sinking of HMS Glorious, and one showing that an Allied air presence over Norway would continue until liberation. Scenarios can be played as one-offs, linked as a mini-campaign, or joined as the whole campaign. Includes aircraft specs for Gladiator, Sunderland, Wellington, Skua, and Ju-88C-2 Zerstorer.
