64: Bretonnian Weapons & Warfare | Warhammer Old World Lore
In our final Bretonnian episode we take a look at the tabletop forces of the land of the Lady. We start with the 3rd edition army list which focused on replicating the real-world forces of medieval France. With the advent of 5th edition we start to see the “refined” list of Bretonnian troops and we launch into the ignoble and not so ignoble infantry the faction can field from Grail pilgrims to men-at-arms together with the newly-minted foot knights. We then turn our gaze to the mighty cavalry units and their unique land formation. Pausing briefly to once again mock the lance as a reliable weapon we then turn our faces to the skies to see the Pegasus Knights. Stepping around the field trebuchets we then run down the characters and named characters available to lead the army. We close out the episode with the gift of bretonnian titles from ol’ Louie Lionheart himself.

63: Bretonnian Royal Heroes | Warhammer Old World Lore
In our penultimate Bretonnian episode, we look at the Royal heroes of the kingdom, beginning with the king. We follow the journey or Leuon Leoncouer from his early quests and combats to his “failed” grail quest and his efforts to kill a necromancer and his brief sojourn into the divine court of the Lady of the Lake herself. After drinking a suspiciously yellow liquid from the Lady’s hands he mercs the necromancer and, as a grail Knight, he secures his ascension to the throne. We have a brief examination of The Green Knight, mystical champion of the Lady with a quite familiar battle style. We close out the episode with the Black Knight, Mallobaude of Mousillon, a disenchanted grail knight and bastard son of the King, who may know the truth behind the kingdom he swore to defend.Chat with us on DiscordPatreonMerchandiseQuartermasterListen Ad-FreeSHOW IMAGES:Louen Leoncouer ART ¦ MINI The Green Knight ART ¦ MINI Mallobaude ART
