I was given a ton of WOTR's figures that I've been painted up for Lion Rampant skirmish gaming but it occurs to me I could easily use them for big battle games. Any suggestions for rules? Also, is there a web site I can get free hi-res WOTR flags and banners?
Thanks

Have a look at Bloody Barons from Peter Pig. The rules form Perfect Captin are also popular for WOTR, plus they are free.
,Hope that helps

Poleaxed by the Lance and Longbow society might be what you want.

If you go for Poleaxed, or even if you don't, you might like the related source books: link

There're free sample pages provided.

Bloody Barons works fine as does Impetvs.

Flower of Chivalry would be my choice.

Ours work like a skirmish game but play on an army level ground scale. The visual feel is very satisfying, if you like man to man combat instead of static blocks of figures facing each other. An army of c. ten thousand men is c. 100-150 figures. The Art of War

I've successfully used DBA v3.0 to refight Bosworth and Barnet.
