I've decided to have a go at bringing UKNES2, which is much simpler than UKNES(no offence guys, I mean that I just couldn't have ran 2 at the same time!) over to Apolyton.
So here it is!
********************************************
IT IS THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 1800, and Europe is once more on the verge of war.
The nations of Europe have been at peace for many years, but from the French revolution comes a dangerous new leader.
Napoleon Bonaparte.
Is he a diplomat or warrior? The old powers refuse to sit on their hands incase it is the latter, and start to rebuild their disbanded armed forces.
The great Admiral Nelson is preparing to defend Britain against any invasion, and Napoleon is preparing for conquest. Arthur Wellsley, soon to be the Duke of Wellington, is returning from a successful campaign in India to lead Britain's army. Prussia is trying to reunite it's nation, and Russia and Sweden size each other up.
Now Europe is rushing head long into war, and only the leaders can stop it...
RULES
The map is divided into provinces. Each capital is worth 5 credits(5c), and each other province is worth 3 credits.
A fleet costs 5 credits, and an army costs 3c.
Each unit just has to roll 7 or under in combat to kill an opponent. After all units have had this roll, combat is finished for that turn. If there are still defenders left, the attacker has to retreat. If there are no defenders left, but still some attackers, the attacker takes the province. If there are no attackers or defenders left, the province stays in the defender's hands.
Each unit can only move one province(or sea in the case of fleets) per turn. Fleets can transport any number of units in one turn, but only to a province on the other side of the sea it is currently in, or a sea adjacent to it. It stays in whichever sea is next to the province it is transporting to. It can only transport units to one location, and cannot move to the next sea if it is transporting units to a province that isn't adjacent to that sea.
Units can also embark the fleet, and move with it until they arrive at their destination.
Each province has militia which has to roll 5 or under to kill an opponent. Capital's militia fights as though it was a regular army(7 or under).
Militia isn't shown on the map, however fleets are represented by squares in your nation's colour in the sea it is in. Fleets cannot enter provinces.
Armies are shown by squares of either white or black(depending on which is easier to see) in your provinces.
Militia aren't shown on the map, but must be killed to take a province. They also automatically are rebuilt if they are killed(after the combat of course). Miltia cannot attack or move.
Each sea has a letter(there isn't one named O due to it's similarity to D), and each province has a letter(Sicily is part of Southern Italy, Corsica and Sardinia are joined, and Denmark is whole, not a lot of islands, and Istanbul takes up both sides of the mouth of the Black Sea).
YOUR ORDERS SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS: (Example is Britain)
Capital 6
1 army* - defend capital
1 army - move to 5
Province 5
1 army - take over 2
Sea C
1 fleet - move to D
It's that simple. Please put a star(*) next to units that are new that turn, like the first army in 6.
After I have received all the orders I will post the updated map.
Once 5 people have joined, the game will begin. I will control any nations which don't have players, and newcomers after the end of the first turn will have to put up with the decisions I made for that country.
EVERYONE STARTS WITH 5 GOLD DUE TO YOUR CAPITAL.
Also, your units cost you UPKEEP. This is one credit per turn per unit that you own. Say you have 2 galleys and 3 armies, that would cost you 5c. If you only have 6c coming in, that means you can only have 6 units at most. That means to buy another army you either need to conquer more territory or just wait the three turns to build up 3 credits.
Each turn will last about 3 days I think, at the beginning, then I will probably settle into a every weekend routine.
Finally, unused credits carry over to the next turn, and orders should be PMed to me.
ALSO NEW UNITS MUST BEGIN IN YOUR CAPITAL!
But one the game starts, I want all orders in as soon as possible, so I can post the updated map, hopefully before Wednesday.
Good luck everyone!

OK...so after killing the defenders either it ends up disputed, the side with more wins and the other must retreat, or they both must retreat BUT the defender loses the territory and it becomes neutral.

"Your Majesty, the 1st Glorious Army of the Kingdom of Sweden has been created."
"Good," said William with an evil grin  coming across his face.
When the troops reached the Norwegian capital, the met little resistance. The Leader was taken prisoner and a battalion returned to Stockholm with him. Little did they know that a contingent of Norwegian warriors was also following htem...
"Your highness, the 4th Glorious Battalion of the 1st Glorious Army of the--"
"OK get on with it, quit all the official name stuff!"
"They are here with the Norwegian leader."
"Very good. Bring them in."
Four guards walked in carrying a man who was resisting weakly.
"Norwegian! What is your name?"
"J-Jo-ohn," he stammered in slightly accented Swedish.
"Here are the paintings of the battles," said one of the guards handing the king some artwork.
"Hmmm, very good." murmured the king as he studied them.
Suddenly, there were sceams and yells from just outside the throne room. THe king immediately dropped the painings and ordered that John be restrained in the far corner. Before this could be done, however, about 15 Norwegians rushed into the room! The guards killed most, but they were helplessly outnumbered, and 5 Norwegains remained when the last guard fell. About 25 more Norwegians entered the room as the king prepared to fight the 5. He realized that he had no hope to resist and submitted.
"I am now Emporer John I of the Norwegian Empire!" declared John, who had been unshackled by the other Norwegians.
They had a parade in John's honor through the streets with William, no longer King, chained to one of the displays. The people watched in disgust and despair.
That night, John announced that the capital of the EMpiure would be in Stockholm because he thought it a great city.
The next morning 3 of his lieutenants in cahoots with William overthrew him because they did not believe he could rule nor that GOd willed it so. William was returned to power, but only if he could allow Norway a quite a bit of autonomy. The three Norwegian lieutenants controlled him, for he was completely at their mercy. His sadistic arrogance faded. THus was created the Kindom of Sweden and Norway.

I'll take Italy, btw whats my name??
A few questions:
do we start out with an army?
do we start out with a fleet? (I think that should be renamed, a fleet is the entire navy of a nation isn't it?)

You won't know until the battle is over. I will say what happened at the end of each turn.
Civman, if you attack and leave no troops to guard the province, the militia will fight the invader, but if they lose, then the province is lost, and the attacker cannot retreat.
If attacks come across the same border, the attacking armies fight each other to see who goes on to invade the other.
If two people hit the same place, they take it and turns to be hit. The first to be hit is randomly decided(two dice rolled for each nation attacking. Starting from lowest is the order that they lose armies).
The nearest sea is usually obvious, it's the closest one possible.
In the event that two are as close as each other(such as the Russian example) you can choose which one it will be built in.
When attacking, if there is at least one defender(or militia) left, the territory remains in their hands. If all the defenders and attackers die(including the militia) then it remains in the defender's hands. It only changes hands when all the defenders including the militia die and their are still attackers left.
Disputed territory is when equal forces have entered a province to claim it.
It is held by neither, and they stay in the province until either ordered out, or more troops are moved in(if one side outnumbers the other in the province at any time, they claim it and the others leave) or orders are given to forcefully remove the enemy from the province.
Basically, if anyone has more armies in the province at any time, they get it. Equal forces make it remain disputed, unless the two sides fight.
