Phase 7]At the outbreak of the war, important players in nuclear research were in Scandinavia. Otto Hahn's key research partner, Lise Meitner, had fled to Stockholm. Neils Bohr, probably the world's foremost expert on atomic structure, was in Copenhagen. Heisenberg visited Bohr and made some effort to lure him to work in the German nuclear program, but it was probably half-hearted as Heisenberg himself was not completely sold on the idea. Eventually Bohr also escaped to Stockholm and later to the U.S., joining the Manhattan Project.
The biggest prize was the Vemork plant in Telemark, Norway, the only plant in the world producing heavy water in commercial quantities. The German government had already offered to buy the entire production of the plant when the French secret service beat them to the punch. The world's reserve of heavy water was smuggled to Paris, and when Paris fell, to Birmingham.
Captured by the Germans, the Vemork plant remained in production until several expeditions by Norwegian partisans, supported by the British Secret Service and the R.A.F., eventually succeeded in destroying it.
Phase 7
14 players in 2 groups will play 7-player games on the Nordic Nations map. The first player eliminated in each game is out of the tournament. The remainder will go on to the next round.

Games have been created and invitations sent out.
