Been playing around with the ECW lists for '43' & 44' & came up with this draft for a rough army of Marston Moor - the King's side only, of course :)
900 pts really isn't enough to cover something the size of Marston Moor, but it's prolly not a bad stab.
Since Eythin & Goring almost won the battle on their own, until Cromwell snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, they get the best toys, notably the Whitecoats & all the Superior Cavaliers.
There were some Artillery pieces the Roundheads overran in the centre before Eythin counterattacked, so reckoned that covered the Sakers....
