Core
Rafael's Risplendente
(28 Ricco's Republicans)
396
Solid Block of Pike, the best option from the RoR. Their heavy armour and large numbers should mean that they get a nice rank bonus. Also includes Ricco, so they might kill something.

Special
Leopoldo's Guardia

Heavy Armour, Full Command, War Banner.
335
A lot of people don't like these, but I find them to be a solid unit. Heavy armoured, stubborn halberdiers? excellent unit.
Hurbalgo's Brutales
(4 Ogres)
Great Weapons, Light Armour, Standard Bearer, Champion.
196
A little bit of hired muscle
Rare
Deflagrare

85

General sniping
So there we have my 2250 point list, I use it for friendly games and I get varying degrees of success.
The infantry units hold the centre, able to take on any rank and file thrown at me. The general and his leadership should be able to get over those fear tests.
