Bloody Barons / Re: Flodden 1513

Great information, especially Leslie BT, thanks for that!

So, the big question, how to transfer this into a Bloidy Barions Army? As the rules as based by base, if you see what I mean, it alliwd mixed units very well, at it basic level 'standard' bill and bow foot units. So an eight stand, 24 figure, Scottish unit could be fourcrear stands of Spearmen, (this is for a Berwick era army, my understanding is that full length pike weren't really around til Floddon?) two stands of bow? And two stands of 'nobles?' Maybe Armoured/harnessed chaos? Then a unit or two of just bow? And the same of just sword and buckler? Some light guns, and light cavalry? How about full harness heavy horse? I'm doubting this, but, as for the standard foot, a stand or two in with the light horse?
Sorry for my ramblings, but I need the wealth of expertise on here, translated to the tabletop!

Many thanks for your help so far, and thanks in advance for any 'wargame' aspect he'll you all can give.
Cheers
John

Hello all, first time poster on here.
In addition to this, I have a client who plays Bloody Barons, as do I, great set of rules! anyway he ia after me painting him a Scottish Army, circa 1485-1525. Any good sites I could find an army list, pref for 'BB' but not essential. Also, what did the Scots use as troop types, I remember lotsa pikes, and mounted archers, and what did they look like?
A lotta questions, I know, sorry! anybody can point me to a good website? or has a lot of knowledge to share?

Many thanks, not wishing to thread-jack!
