I don't know much about the history of that region at that tine but let's say Novgorod wins the battle of Shelon in 1471 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Shelon albeit with heavy losses. This weakens both Novgorod and Muscovy and allows Lithuania to move in and annex Novgorod.
What are the consequences for Lithuania and the Russian principalities?
For sure this would mean:
1. Significant strengthening of Lithuania due to annexation of significant territory with a huge population and significant resources (forests, furs, trade routes)
2. Delayed or prevented rise of Muscovy.
3. A shift in the balance of power within the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth more in favor of Lithuania.
As usual - what do you guys think?
