Do Royalists and Scots Covenenters. they'll fight each other during either the Bishops War or the first Civil war and they can be used as a combined army during 'Civil war 2: The Monarchy strikes back'. Plus the Scots flags are relatively easy to do at home.
A York! A York!

Covenanters are great, you can have them on the right side in 1st civil war and then getting thrashed with the losers in the 2nd and third! 
I am working on a small Covenanter force to compliment my other ECW... Why not!

Another question....
Can anyone tell me what cavalry comes with the Pike & Shotte Starter Battalia? The description says "24 Cavalry" and the picture looks like a mix of Parliament Cavalry and Royalist Cavalry.

I believe they are almost identical. I have the Royalist Cavalry box, and I think the only difference might be the info insert and the banners included? The plastic sprues look identical.
Hope this helps.

No worries! I was equally bewildered when I started, and I am equally bewildered now!
I picked up the Warhammer ECW rules by John Stallard, and that was a huge benefit for me, it's what got me started in the period, honestly. And then all the other books and so on only added fuel to my fire. Someday, I might even get a game in!

You sound like me!
One of my first books was the Warhammer ECW as well!
