Hi again and thanks Elias for your softer approach.
Individual ships are individually named (in Sweden case, Stockholm and Malmo frigates of Stockholm class). The other naval counters represent a group of 2 - 4 vessels so giving individual names is simply not possible.
Regarding missing ports, wrong terrain and similar I can only answer once again as I already did: Ports need a certain capacity, so small ports or even ports not having certain characteristics are left out. Airfields are simply too many, and those on map could actually represents a group of 2 or 3 near airfields. Terrain must take into account different characteristics, and BTW there's no "forest" terrain in 1985. Roads must be BIG and MANY to be represented in a hex on this level, and in several cases hexes that should have been "rough 1" have been upgraded to "clear" due to the presence of roads.
With this, I'm not implying the map is perfect and has no errors, but only that simplification and abstraction should always be taken into account when developing or studying a game at this scale.
As for the brigades designation, I've prepared alternate counters having the mobilized brigades historical designations and not the ridiculous numbering used only to simplify the life of the designer
I've made them quickly so it's possible there's some error! Of course, mobilized brigades have now no reference to their cadre regiment, so you'll have to know which one is what.

Thanks for for effort! I agree that Elias softer approach as you put it is nicer.
So, to my point. I may very well be mistaken but I just can't seem to find NB35 (Norrlandsbrigad that was set up from I5 in Östersund). I think it's the one you have indicated as NB51. As far as I recollect, we were called NB35 and were the most northern of all Norrlands brigades with initial location north of Gällivare.
