Ok, great one sided battle Swedes get mauled need to build castle. Does the navy get to shoot. We might be able to proxy with the cannon. Read the rules on transferring command points, very useful for moral tests. Would only use if points available then any units needing orders would be a priority.

As your research will have confirmed by now it is also called Battle of NyborgDon't get caught up with the boats or the fort which is to far behind lines to have an influence. The land battle will be 3 a side [7 x 4 table will work], with the Swedes stating in a defensive line, their flanks anchored by a lake and a wood - see map in the link below. There is a road (17th century type not a 4 lane tarmacadam motorway) running across the table and some hedges hugging it. See this for the best write up, even has a map of the battle fieldThe C-in-C will have some extra assets [read cannon] and I will prepare all the orbats QRF's etc. so that the Danes and allies will be almost twice as large numerically. The forces will be drawn for, so you may have to fight with nobility or peasants. Most of tango troops will be on the table.

I have wofked out some forces - listed below so that tango can sort out the boxes inadvance I will bring some stuff too but the cossacks are likely to look like medieval knights I have assumed 6 players, 3 aside It is a 'refight' so the forces are not balanced, it is down to you to rewrite history I have leftout dragoons because their rules become more complicated as they're better on foot but then we have horses to worry about Should someone not come the first thing taken off will be a Swedish commander | Danes | Swedes | Commanders | 3 | 3 | Cossack style 🐎 | 22 |
| Reiters 🐎 | 17 | 12 | Cuirassier 🐎 | 3 |
| Musketeers | 21 | 22 | Poor quality musketeers |
| 6 |
Cannon 2 4
