Lord Gordon's Horse (392 Pts)
20 Gordon Horse; Leader, Cornet, Trumpeter, pistols (392 Pts)

Viscount Aboyne's Horse (392 Pts)
20 Gordon Horse; Leader, Cornet, Trumpeter, pistols (392 Pts)

Scots Royalist Army = 2732 Pts

Option: If you subscribe to the idea that Montrose had a full 600 Gordon cavalry at Auldearn then you can simply add a second unit of 20 horse under Viscout Aboyne. This would add another 392 Pts to the list bringing the total to 3204 Pts. However, with 400 Gordon cavalry (2 x 20 models) you will already have more horse than you know what to do with, and the points conveniently balance quite nicely with the Covenanter Army.

Notes: I have used the Scots Royalist Army Lists in WECW as a basis for the points estimate and unit stats. The unit size is based on the OOB below at a 1:10 figure scale and matches the basing suggestion below. I have not honoured the WECW list restrictions, but have tried to reproduce the historical OOB.
