I'm sorry but I don't have the book with me.
I'm using Breton ally if you can help you:

- 1BG of CV and 2 of LH

- or 2BG of CV and 2 of LH

for skirminshing in one wing or for supporting in case of wheeling of some HF BG's.

You must take at least the minimum of the troop types that have a minimum in an allied list, plus an allied general

IIRC you have to take some spearmen. But surely the point of taking the Cornish Ally is to get a couple of BGs of MF spearmen to occcupy terrain and protect a flank ?
