There is a Pestamo-Kirkenes scenario showing the Soviet operations in the North in 1944. The same map can be also used for a Murmansk 1941 scenario.
The units are battalions (land units) and squadrons (air force).
The scenario for attack on Murmansk in June 1941 (or the beginning of it, historically the German mountain rifle divisions never made it to Murmansk) needs to be created from scratch. There is a Panzer General II scenario of the second attack on Murmansk in September 1941 which has both English and German versions. (Most old games like Panzer General II are still sold and can run on a PC today.)
There are OOBs for Murmansk so when I am done with the latest version of the Eastern Front campaign (4 more scenarios to test) Murmansk will be the next project.

So we will see Operation Silver Fox with the options to take Murmansk ?

Sounds very interesting.

Will it be a mini campaign with stages or one big map ?

There are two maps of Kirkenes - Murmansk area, one for summer and one for autumn.

The first stage was moving the mountain divisions to Petsamo which can as well be left out unless someone wants a movement tutorial.

There could be a mini campaign: border crossing and first moves on the summer map and second offensive (Panzer General II conversion) on the autumn map.

Given the time span this had, a mini campaign would be better if you want to depict the whole thing.

I think there is a limit to the turns a single map can have (60?) and we cannot advance outside a single day (e.g. a month later).

So splitting it up would be a good solution.

The operation on summer map starts on June 29 and ends on July 11 when the attack stopped. The autumn map operation (Panzer General II conversion) starts on September 8 and has 20 days for a brilliant victory, 25 for normal and 30 for tactical. As the units in Panzer General II have shorter moves, these numbers may be too high.

The summer operation starts with an attack on the 95th Soviet regiment on the border (in battalion bunkers?) After that the 136th Gebirgsjager regiment gets stuck on the bottleneck to Rybachiy Peninsula (and there is a second one deeper in the peninsula) and the remaining 3 Gebirgsjager regiments reach the first river across the border, on which they face another Soviet division.

It is also important that a German mountain rifle division of 1941 had two regiments (6 battalions) against 3 regiments in a Soviet rifle division.

So when the mountain divisions reach Litsa river they will be in a not so favorable situation, unless the air force can make a difference (depending on how many planes they have and also the number of planes on the other side.)

That would also explain the tactical pause in July and August.

The German OOBs and a test play of border attacks to be expected this weekend.
As there are other fronts to fight on, the progress will be gradual but stable.

A test of the June 29 border battle. The Soviets deploy 4 battalions on the border (3 battalions of 95th regiment and 1 separate battalion). The Germans attack with 2 mountain rifle divisions (12 battalions in total) with artillery support (105 and 150 mm). Since a bunker garrison of battalion strength may sometimes withstand even an attack of a division, the mountain rifle divisions will need all artillery support they have, and that is an artillery regiment for a division. Otherwise they will have heavy casualties and be bogged down on day 1.

As air units are also needed elsewhere in Norway, only the force from Kirkenes air base is available, and that is 1 squadron of Bf109E, 1 squadron of Bf 110 and 1 squadron of Ju 88.
(Still looking for but not finding those Stukas from Rovaniemi which could make some difference...)

More exact OOB with names will be done tomorrow, together with a screenshot of the HQ (I will do something every day, even if very little).

The numbers/names of units will have the Panzer General II numbering/naming system, like battalion/regiment/division (I/136/2 Gebirgsjager)
