You can disband them and let the equipment go to the replacements pool.  The aircraft can leave Sweden I think.  The ships are useless I'm afraid.  Perhaps they will be able to leave Sweden sometime in the future?

That seems a little gamey to me.

I think this is the 4th time it has been brought up. Quoting myself:
"The exclusion zone is the same used in Persia, and will disappear when USSR choose to invade that. (available from turn 21)
Reason is the lack of a third exclusion zone in the editor (other used for Turkey), so I chose deliberate to use the same as Persia, thinking that no Soviet player would bring Sweden into the war at a time when not even having a mutual border with them (before finland was conquered), thus basically giving the axis some 10 more divisions for free.
If Sweden wasn't in the war, the border would still disappear when Persia was invaded, but I still wanted it to be in place for those first 20 turns, just to act as foolproof, so the german player wouldn't start sending troops to finland, going through swedish harbourhexes, against the houserules, thus giving the baltic islands a bit of importance."

and
"And just to clarify. Bibbo you should ask your soviet opponent to invade Persia, a theater option available for him from turn 21.
For him this activates two of his armies on garrison duty in the Caucasus. The exclusion zones around Persia (and Sweden) will dissappear and he should be abke to make short work of the Persian "Army", allowing him to send the armies to fight against the Germans and you to get the Swedes out of their country."

Hi,
I have taken a look at your TOE for the Swedish Infantry Rgts. The should be revised a bit. The are to powerful. See comparison here:
Swedish Inf org 37: http://www.tdg.nu/swedish_armed_forces/ ... 7_toaw.htm
Swedish Inf org 41: http://www.tdg.nu/swedish_armed_forces/ ... 1_toaw.htm
Swedish Inf Org 43: http://www.tdg.nu/swedish_armed_forces/ ... M_toaw.htm
The Cav bde org 39: http://www.tdg.nu/swedish_armed_forces/ ... 9_toaw.htm
The Arm bde org 45: http://www.armehandbok.se/ny_sida_824.htm (this is the one used during WWII)
The mot Bde org 45 is there but not complete.
The Corps OOB can be found here http://www.tdg.nu/swedish_armed_forces/ ... 941-45.htm and some here:
http://orbat.com/site/ww2/ola/index.html but the links are broken to the following docs and I have edited the links here to work:
http://orbat.com/site/ww2/ola/ARMY_WW2_ ... %c5REN.pdf
http://orbat.com/site/ww2/ola/ARMY_WW2_ ... %c5REN.pdf

I have maps with deployments of different fotmations and can help with that part.
