Does anybody have any suggestions on sources for flags in the 30 Years War? I have details of Swedish, Saxon & Imperialist flags & banners, but I would like a few more options, especially for the German states on both sides.

The two Ospreys on the Army of Gustavus Adolphus are a good start. Many of the flags featured are from 'German' regiments.

Another source is the series of articles by Mark Allen featured in WI. He issued a set of articles and then retracted all of his findings sometime later and re issued the article with corrected info.

I would also strongly recommend getting a set of city coats of arms for German/Austrian/Czech cities. These city flags were probably used by regiments raised from the populace during the war.

Have you had a look at the Warflag site? it has flags for Danish, Spanish, Bavarian, Scottish, Swedes and Protestant states, but doesn't say which ones.

I forgot to add in the url for the yahoo group on the TYW where you will find some details of flags in the files section.
