GENERAL RULES
Each player starts with 1000 points
Each occupied county is worth 50 additional points
You occupy a county by moving into it or claim it by winning a battle.
Once you have claimed an entire division of counties you receive an additional 100 points
If more than one force is fighting for a province the lowest casualities wins the county.
A force other than a flying column moves one county at a time
A force designated as a flying column (more cavalry, dragoons, detached musketeers, and light guns than infantry) can move two counties in one move.
You may only have one force in play unless points exceed 2000 points
You may play as an independent (by declaring yourself king or protector) or form alliances but only with your own side.
Players can join at any time when their are unclaimed counties
Players can opt out at any time and their provinces become “neutral” (ie: unclaimed)
Players points for battles by adding up the points from their claimed provinces
Map and marked army position will be updated at the end of each month showing the counties in your chosen colour and the forthcoming battles for the month
MOVEMENT.........................................................................................TYPE OF BATTLE...............................TERRAIN
Two forces moving into a county................................................................Open battle.....................................Always Pot luck
If one force is already occupying a county.....................................................Defender decides..............................Defender choice unless one general occupies twice or more provinces = their choice
If a defender friendly force is adjacent to the county being attacked.....................Reinforced battle for the defender.......... Defender choice unless one general occupies twice or more provinces = their choice
If an attacker friendly force is adjacent to the county being attacked....................Reinforced battle for the attacker...........Attacker choice unless one general occupies twice or more provinces their choice
If both attacker and defender friendly forces adjacent to the county being attacked...Open battle.....................................Pot luck unless one general occupies twice or more provinces = their choice
Anyone Interested?, obligation should only be one move a month eg County 21 to 17 and perhaps one battle (maybe two if you're being picked on
....) Finally, army movement can be by pm if necessary (because of neighbouring opponents movements) and if a challenge goes unanswered by the end of the month the county is automatically taken by the attacker issuing the challenge.Changes actioned so far
oints noted. The following proposed changes.
1.A "flying column" is designated as any force where the combined total of units of cavalry detached musketeers, dragoons and light guns outnumber the pike and shot Hence, parliament could conceivably field a flying column (Yes, I've checked) . Royalists do not have to, but may choose to use the raiders list.
2. Any player, either side, can designate themselves as a flying column at anytime but must declare this when they post their move.
3. If you designate your move as a flying column and a battle results from a consequence of that move then the player must field a flying column force on the field.
4. Equal number of players on each side
Base rule change (otherwise the turns will take years) Movement "You claim a county if you pass through it (You do not have to remain in it for one turn)"
so i'll ensure the 
good looking sheep
