I'm putting these photos of the Wars of the Roses battles demoed at Claymore, Edinburgh 2015 here for reference. There may be a few edits as I try to order them or add whatever relevant text, if any, in here.
Blurb from Towton Game
The Towton battlefield
One side of the action, whether Lancastrian or York, I haven't figured out yet!
First Battle of St Albans-
View from centre of Yorkist lines (Deployment would have been in three 'battles'. Names reflect their position on march. This is behind Mainward. Rearguard can be seen deployed left, Vanguard right).
Rearguard Yorkist view - quality a bit poor
Side view
More as I upload them, there are additional photos.

Nice looking games, though the St. Albans table has more minis than the Towton one.
Painted Minis in 2014: 510, in 2015: 300, in 2016 :369, in 2019: 417, in 2020: 450

Yep! That Towton was being fought with about 150 a side made me laugh. They do say its a scaled down version. No kidding.
I love the fact that they used Lion Rampant though. Theres a WotR scenario using Lion Rampant in the latest Wargames Illustrated too. Must be a thing...
