Due to extensive fleet rearrangement and refit schedules that look more like plans for a football offense, the Kingdom of Siam is uncertain as to which vessel shall be sent, but pledges at least one ship to attend.

No, in effect, the review will happen along the southern coast of Norway, with Coldmere as the focal point. Big ship facilities will be provided at Horten & Trondheim.

Kristiansund Bay is quite big though

I expect Manzo will be just itching to have a second go going to Coldmere, which is probably why I'll have Fighters on CAP duty during the entire event.

As for Cigar smoking penguins?

Maybe in the Casino

The KM checks to see if Bismarck can be made ready for the review, but disappointed, informs the hosts that Germany will be sending the CB Von der Tann.

The US looks at it's fleet, shrugs, and will be sending USS Lexington.
