Hi, I made 2 banners set for the battle of Guinegate. You can also use some of them for Early Italian wars.

I have these, but the army of Guinegate fielded none of the Ordonance companies, so the banners would be different, I assume.

Well there were new ordonnance companies raised from 1477 onwards, so presumably the cavalry at Guinegate would have been from these new companies.

It is an interesting question, what flags they would have used. I'm guessing not any of the older Burgundian ones specifically linked to Charles the Bold (with his motto 'Je Lay Emprins'), but surely some of the more 'generic' older ones would still be in use? Not all of them would have been lost at Nancy.

For me the main sources (really few in fact) I find only this kind of banners for the Cavalery :

If you want more variety, you could use some simplier pennons
