The start!



Saturday, 30th May, 1453

Karl VIII is sitting in his war tent in the province of Värmland near the Norwegian border. They had received orders to break camp.
They were moving south to try to engage the Danish forces before they enter Småland. Despite the repeted edvice from his advisors that they shod march on the Norwegian Capital.
But the King had a plan.
By meating up whith the Danish first he wood be able to stop there advance, sinse the Danes were the stronger in the Norway-Denmark alliance he knew that if the Danes surender Norway will follow.
By the same time he had sent word to Stockholm to order the formation of a Regiment of Knights and the order to form a Regiment of Infantry in Berglagen.
When the Infantry in Bergslagen have bin formed it will join 2nd Army from Stokholm to meat up whith the Norwgians and stop theme some were in Hälsingland or Dalaskogen. The Knights will join up as son as possible.

Do the Swedes start at war in 1453 against Norway and Denmark? And have you got any allies?

Looking forward to see how you manage Sweden...

The king have got word that the Danish had attacket the fort in Småland. He rapidly sent word to the 2nd Army led by Engelbrekt to stear Vest and meat up whith the temporarly formd 3rd Army (Had been formd from the Kings 1st Army) in Bergslagen to stop the Norwegian coming down from Jämtlant to Dalaskogen. The King him self was heding to Västergötaland, if he coud protect Götaland he coud garantie reinforsments and thus steping one more step closer to viktory...

Trouble brewing in the Kings plan. The Norwegen army is not moving as prevasly believed. Instead of moving east they are continuing south to Värmland. The 3rd Army have halted in its tracks on it own initiative. Engelbrekt have sent word that he is meating up whith 3rd asap. And if he is late the 3rd Army runs the risk of beaing overrun. The King is planing to attack the Danish forses in Småland.

Wednesday 1, July 1453

The Kings 1st Army engaged the Danish 2nd Army lead by the Danish King Christian I. The batte whas in the favor of Sweden. But there were coming in reports from scouts that the 1st Danish Army were heading fore Västergötaland. It only containd one regiment but it whas still one more battle to fight.
Engelbrekt were at the same time geting a scout report that a 2000 man army were heading fore Värmland to join the one coming down from Dalaskogen. Engelbrekt halted in Berglagen and sent word whith his fastest messenger to light a fire under 3rd Armys ass, they were to pull back and meat up whith Engelbrek.

Friday 17, July 1453

Norway's 1st Army slamd in to the backside of 3rd Army. Both sides suferd small loses before 3rd Army manage to reatrat, heading fore 2nd Army. Hopfuly Infantry Regiment in Stockholm will be done before they owerrun Bergslagen. And the battle in Småland is still raging on, it seams that the Swedish Army is gana beat the Danish, but at June 15 the 1st Danish Army moved in to Västergötaland so the King need to head there direct after the battle has ended in Småland.
