Pike & Shotte Epic Battles: Montrose's Scottish Royalists Starter Army

The Royalist Scots army of Montrose has always been a favourite with wargamers. A small force almost entirely dependent on its infantry, this army was usually outnumbered, but rarely outfought on the battlefield. The Irish Brigade and Highland clans give the army its unique feel, and the limited access to good cavalry and artillery make it somewhat unorthodox, but all the more iconic for it.
