The Saxon Contingent: After the Danes had redeployed to
face the Swedish attack, but before the battle had started a Saxon
mounted contingent arrived to aid the Danes. I suggest that they
arrive behind the Danish army, either on the 1st turn or dice for
there arrival with an increasing chance. Once arrived join 4 units
to the left wing and 4 to the right wing, your may choose which
go were. *This will add 2 / 4 to the commands exhaustion levels*.

Artillery and 'What if': The Danes had in fact formed a
fortified line, with all there guns emplaced on this line, including
the battalion / light guns. Unfortunately for the Danes, and their
Saxon allies, the Swedes did not approach from the expected direction,
instead they arrived on the flank of the position. So this line
had to be abandoned and the army redeployed to face the Swedes,
leaving all the artillery behind to catch up if they could. In the
real battle they never did and thus are not included in the battle.
They consisted of 43 * 3pdr or 4pdr (or possibly only 13) - 7 /
11 strength points. They should be organised in strength 1 or 2
'units'.
You could have these as possible reinforcements arriving late in
the battle. As an alternative you may wish to game the 'What if'
the Swedes had attacked the fortified line. In this scenario all
the guns and the infantry of the first line should be in temporary
fortifications. While the Saxon cavalry should form a group on their
own - Exhaustion 4 / 8, under General Flemming. They will still
arrive as reinforcements, but in the middle to the end of the game,
rather than early.
