BATTLE OF STOCKHOLM
The day dawned clear above the Swedish capital. A light snow was drifting down on the rooftops. And a disciplined row of 20,000 Swedish troops marched out bravely to meet their deaths against 70,000 Danish troops. King Frederick I himself rode atop a marvelous black horse. On the horizon the red and white Dannebrog fluttered in the breeze. The Swedes muttered prayers as they watched the Danes preparing for victory.

Rows of Danish cannons roared as the Swedish soldiers hunkered down to defend themselves. The Danes charged with fixed bayonets, a virtual tsunami of red coats. The Swedes fired desperatly bringing down an odd soldiers here and there. However 20,000 couldn't stop 70,000. The Danes crashed into the Swedish lines with vigor. Musket fire and hand-to-hand fighting engulfed the battlefield.
King Frederick realized that his forces were doomed and he ordered a withdrawl. The remaining Swedish forces complied. The road to Stockholm was open for the Danes.
END RESULT: Danish Victory
Danish: 2,000
Swedish: 12,000
