Cloudy pictures (probably upside down!), but here's my first 10mm army.  Yorkists for DBA.

Very nice, and, as far as I can tell, the correct way up! 8)

Very nice indeed. Here's a thought if your budget and table can run to it: 10mm figures on DBA 28mm bases. You would be amazed how much more like an army 12 bases can look. Here are some Sassanids:

Banners! That aside, pretty start. :)

They look terrific!  This whole DBA thing was a bit of a trial run for my 'proper' project - ECW in very large numbers.  I really appreciate all the kind words.  I'll get to work on banners forthwith.  Would they be spread evenly among the knights?

The frustrating thing about WOR is that the big names and their banners would mostly be on foot; it was something of a mark of good faith to one's followers.

Look on the "warflag" site - got resizable sheets of WoR of banners.

The Osprey book has lots of useful stuff, as I remember.

Yeah, I got the Wars of the Roses Osprey (Men-at-Arms), there's a nice page of colour flags I can paint onto tin foil (I've always done my banners on tin foil - metal on metal seems consistent!); I was just unsure as to who might have them.
I didn't buy any banner carriers among the infantry (this project is a test, and was done on the cheap!), so I'm limited to the knights.

Baccus so some nice WOTR banners...you could buy them and scale them up in a scanner
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

You might also try the Lance and Longbow Society - they cover the period fairly comprehensively.
