I'm doing some Scot spearmen/billmen for 2nd Barons War. At this point, they would not have had Red crosses as I understand that was some time later. However, if I am going to differentiate the Scot in some manner, any suggestions? Maybe go ahead and put red crosses on them? I understand that at Evesham, Henry/Edward started having some units wear red crosses, similar to Montfort having units wear white crosses at Lewes. Thoughts? |

Would they be St. Andrew's crosses? Or did that come later. |

I think St Andrews cross came in late 1200s |

The St Andrew's cross is first mentioned in late 1300s- in april 1385 "A white St Andrew's cross on a piece of black cloth round or square." |
