Information Thread for Potential Bretonnian Units

The Kingdom of Bretonnia is a highly-chivalrous feudal kingdom that lies between the lands of the Grey Mountains and the Great Ocean. Bretonnia is second only in size and military power to that of the Empire of Man, both their chief rival and closest allies, having a culture and society that revolves around the ideals of nobility, social birthright and the upholding of a strictly enforced code of chivalry. Ruled by a Royarch, the nation of Bretonnia has been known throughout the Kingdoms of Man for having the greatest Knights within the entire Old World, rivaling or in some cases even surpassing that of the Knightly Orders of the Empire. A proud and honorable kingdom, the warriors of Bretonnia comprised mostly of Knights and Noblemen, who ride into battle with lance, horse, and sword, seeking out glories and rooting out injustice wherever they go.

Bretonnian Warhorse = The horses were big, powerful and not lacking in stamina. The Bretonnian Knights therefore made every effort to maintain and improve their special breed. A very important factor in this was the peace pact with the Wood Elves of Athel Loren. By the terms of this pact, from time to time the Elves allow the Bretonnians to have some of their precious steeds.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...nnian_Warhorse

Dragon = The youngest Dragons, those born after the reign of Aenarion are known as Sun Dragons in owe of their fiery temper and red scales. Apparently has 'kinship' with Bretonnia according to the appendix chart in Monstrous Arcanum.
Warhammer Supplement: Monstrous Arcanum
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon

Griffon = A Griffon is a combination of a giant bird of prey and a big cat, such as a lion, or tiger. Griffon's have massive feathered wings, and beaks which are hooked and can easily sever a man's limb. Their claws, which are reminiscent of a hawk's talons, are kept sharp by regular scoring against stone. Griffons appear to be creatures born from the mutating power of Chaos.

Hippogryph = The Hippogryph species inhabit the upper reaches of the Grey Mountains, occasionally prowling the green lands below for prey such as sheep and cattle, although they have also been known to hunt Humans, Greenskins or just about any creature than cannot quickly hide from its vision.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Hippogryph

Pegasus = Pegasi (singular pegasus) look like magnificent white draft horses with elegant feathered wings. Their coats sparkle under the sun in a manner reminiscent of light playing over new-fallen snow.

Questing Beast = Shown in the following piece of concept art from a Warhammer event, the art depicts knights (possibly questing or grail knights) riding on the backs of strange beasts that are highly likely to be based on the Questing Beasts of Arthurian legend.

Cults of Bretonnia

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

The religious spirit of Bretonnia is often as divided as the division between the nobility and peasantry. Within Bretonnian society, the worship of the Lady of the Lake is considered the main religious doctrine. Much of Bretonnian culture is shaped by the actions of the Cult of the Lady, making them a large political power amongst the nobility. However, unlike the worship of other cults, such as the Cult of Sigmar, where Imperial doctrine claims the allegiance of all the Empire's people, the Cult of the Lady is restricted to the nobility.

Although the middle class of freemen commoners are allowed to worship at shrines and temples, they are required to pay a tithe unto the brotherhood maintaining such sites. For the nobility, such tithing is entirely voluntary and the amount dependent upon the noble's generosity. Most tithing's are thus made for show and to establish their social status and reputation amongst the peerage.

Peasants are prohibited from openly worshiping the Lady of the Lake under pain of death or very severe punishment. Instead, the peasantry are allowed and in some cases, forced to worship the Gods of the Old World.

Cult of the Lady of the Lake

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

The Cult of the Lady of the Lake is a state-official religious cult that serves to follow and uphold the values set upon them by the Lady of the Lake, and to serve the interest of her and the Kingdom of Bretonnia. Since ancient times, the Bretonnians have worshiped the Lady of the Lake as their goddess and their primary deity, a figure of myth and legend who guides their kings and protects their lands from harm.

Altar Guard = Listed on page 67 of the 3rd edition of Warhammer. “The bretonnians are a devout race. Armies often carry the bones of revered individuals in caskets forming part of a special war altar. These are carried right to the fighting, so that the troops may look upon and be inspired by the great saints and heroes of the past.” Wear heavy armour and use hand weapons. Variants include; Shields, Halberds.

Each knight was once a stolen boy of Bretonnia grown to powerful maturity and regal stature, garbed in archaic silver armour and wielding a variety of strange mystical weapons, their pale skin had a slight glow and their eyes glittered with the Lady's glory. They burst from a mystical lake, riding upon bestial water-horses which snorted and grunted through dagger like teeth. Their hair rippled, swirling as if underwater and their voices roared in unison, untold years of rage waiting to be unleashed. Scaled warbeasts snapped and kicked and thrashed, hooked flails tore limbs from joints, tridents and spears sent bodies flying through the air.”

Cult of Myrmidia

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

While the Cult of Myrmidia is growing substantially due to the presence of nearby Estalia. Being a martial God, it is a common theme for peasant soldiers and common militia to revere Myrmidia more than any other deity. The academy is located in the small town attached to Castle Carcassonne. As it is far from court and in a conflict-ridden region, the academy is not fashionable with Bretonnian chivalry. The famously laconic Duke Huebald, a true warleader, values the academy greatly and sends promising squires there for training. Other students are drawn from the younger sons of noble families, the mercenary bands based at the castle, and recruits from Estalia itself.

Knights of the Blazing Sun = Formed during the Crusades.
http://whfb.lexicanum.com/wiki/List_of_Knightly_Orders

Knights of the Righteous Spear = ”The Order of the Righteous Spear has several chapterhouses in the Empire, and although many chapters use different names, they are all part of the Righteous Spear order. Each chapter is typically tasked to protect one of the Eagle’s temples, although they also respond to honourable causes as and when they see fit. Because of this, the templars of the order are rarely seen outside of the area they protect.”

Knights of the Verdant Spear = No further information available.
http://whfb.lexicanum.com/wiki/List_of_Knightly_Orders

Knights of Magritta = Since its establishment this academy has collected intelligence about Estalia and sent periodic reports to Luccini. In fact, the academy has many ties to Estalia, since it’s just across the border. Many caballeros have trained in Carcassonne and the Knights operate several mercenary bands in Estalia to support the academy.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Aquila_Academies
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...ts_of_Magritta

Order of the Eagle = ”There, sharp-eyed priests run classes in strategy and warcraft, open to any who wish to attend. They also hold regular services for expatriate southerners (the specific day varies according to local customs, but is often every five days). These services—normally conducted in Classical, Estalian, or Tilean—are more interactive than most, with the priests actively encouraging others to get involved, asking questions of the congregation.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Cult_of_Myrmidia

Order of the Shield = This is a small order of Myrmidian templars, little present in the Empire. Nothing else is known about this order.
http://warhammer-empire.com/theforum...c,17589.0.html

Shieldmaidens of Myrmidia = ”The command structure is also central to her teachings, but there are several legends where the Goddess or her Shieldmaidens chose to do what was right, not what they were ordered to. Because of this, although most Myrmidians stick rigidly to orders, they readily ignore them if it will result in a betrayal of their honour.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Cult_of_Myrmidia

Templars of Myrmidia = Listed on page 57 of the 3rd edition of Warhammer Tabletop. “These are the Templars, religious orders of knights.”
https://www.scribd.com/doc/59162764/...sy-Armies-Book

War Altar of Myrmidia = "These are small portable altars carried onto the battlefield and guarded by units of religious fanatics. War altars usually contain or incorporate holy relics."

Warriors of Myrmidia = I thought each should get a cultist unit, I’ve no information on what common cultists of this religion would be like.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...midia#Cultists

Knights of the Realms

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Bretonnia has some of the finest Knights in the world. The current Bretonnian roster appears to cover the majority of these already, but here are a few that have been missed out.

Crusaders = Though not strictly linking to the time of the game, I thought that perhaps it would be interesting to suggest a regiment of veteran Bretonnian knights who fought down in the southern desert of Araby, trying to cleanse the evil from those lands.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi..._against_Araby

Feudal Knights = A defunct unit from the 4th edition of Warhammer, could potentially be another bretonnian knightly unit. Found on page 8.
https://www.scribd.com/doc/306333864...Edition-Armies

Foot Knights = "The nobility of Bretonnia is notoriously inflexible in its attitude to warfare - preferring to fight on horseback wherever and whenever possible. However, there are obviously circumstances when this is impossible, and even the flower of chivalry is obliged to fight on foot. Never comfortable in this role, the knights do not fight so well as when mounted, but none-the-less they are easily the best foot soldiers in the Bretonnian army."

https://i.imgur.com/MECNbS4.png White Dwarf 153

Hermit Knights = Grail Knights who live alone or in very small groups at the most sacred locations linked to the Lady of the Lake. These are often far from civilisation.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Grail_Knight

Knights Errant = Young impetuous knights
https://i.imgur.com/9RmyiWT.jpg 3rd Ed. Armies Book
https://i.imgur.com/eP75nBH.jpg 3rd Ed. Armies Book

Knights of Fay Favours = A knight gifted with favours by the Fay Enchantress. In the old rulebooks these took many forms, such as Daemon slaying, Wizard Slaying etc.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Fay_Enchantress

Knights of Fracasse = Knights who wield flails rather than lance or sword. I’ve made this one up basing it on the magical weapon from the rulebooks called the Morning Star of Fracasse.
http://whfb.lexicanum.com/wiki/Brettonian_magic_items

Knights of Our Lady of Battle = Otherwise known as Chevaliers de Notre Dame de Bataille, they are an order of knights who sacred banner bears the emblem of ‘Our Lady of Battle’. It is known affectionately by the knightly order as ‘La Femme Fatale’. May equip; Barding, Shields.
https://i.imgur.com/9RmyiWT.jpg 3rd Ed. Armies Book
https://i.imgur.com/UjdPf7I.png White Dwarf 115

Knights of the Glatisant = Not an official name, but the concept art depicts knights riding on Questing Beasts. Questing Beasts come from Arthurian legend, and they were also known as Beast Glatisant. So the name kind of works neatly. I'd assume they're either Questing Knights or Grail Knights, but the image is not clear enough to known for certain.
https://img.fireden.net/tg/image/146...1260662189.jpg
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Questing_Beast

Knights of the Perilous Lance = Named after a knight of renown who won every joust at every tournament he entered, never revealing his face. I’ve created this unit based on the special hero listed in the 5th edition army book.
http://whfb.lexicanum.com/wiki/Warha..._(5th_Edition)

Preyton Knights = Assumed by me. These are knights who have taken on the valorous task of hunting down the savage and hateful Preytons in Bretonnia and have succeeded. To commemorate their victory, their helms bear blackened and serrated antlers, quite possibly from the Preyton they slew.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Preytons

The Black Knight = The Black Knight is an old and well known figure of Bretonnian folklore and legend. In his aspect as something to be dread, he undoubtedly embodies the age old fear of the Chaos Knight, the Dark Elf rider or the Undead horsemen who have plagued Bretonnia since time immemorial. Thus he represents the archetypal adversary of a bold Bretonnian knight. In his less ominous aspect, he represents the anonymous Knight. Such a Knight may wish to disguise his identity under black, shabby robes, lacking any heraldic device by which he might be recognised. Some Questing Knights do indeed adopt such a garb. There is always speculation as to why a Knight should do this, maybe it is because he must redeem his honour, or has he forsaken the true faith?

Adventurers = Almost every single wiki entry for the different dukedoms of Bretonnia has made mention of many peasants running away to become Adventurers in the big wide world beyond, it stands to reason that these may return and fight alongside their armies. I have no idea what they’d be like, I’m guessing a unit of randomly equipped and armed troops, but its up to whoever makes models to do it how they want, I’m just suggesting possibilities.

Arblastiers = They come both from the voluntary Bretonnian township contingents and from the personal retinues of various knights. Wield crossbows, may equip shields.

Brigands = "Brigands are former soldiers cast adrift by the death of their Lord or break-up of his feudal holdings. Masterless and homeless, they have little option but to roam Bretonnia, hiring out their skills to Lords who have need of reliable fighting troops. In this way they take part in countless small wars between rival Lords, sometimes gaining fame, riches or a fearsome reputation." Wield hand weapons. Variants include; Shield, Crossbows, Halberds, Great Weapons, Spears, Spears and Shields. Arquebuses are listed but Bretonnian field armies cannot use firearms.

Chasseurs de la Mort = These are mounted men-at-arms and retainers of knights. They band together into units of their own, as their masters will not permit them to join the ranks of nobility. May equip; Crossbows, Shields.
https://i.imgur.com/9RmyiWT.jpg 3rd Ed. Armies Book

Deepwatch = It is made up of those too caught-up in the tales of adventure and glory to pay heed to the inherent dangers, or those too desperate to care. The Deepwatch are in essence a guild of professional adventurers, with groups dispatched into the tunnels beneath the city to keep them clear from monsters and stop any creatures from reaching the city. It’s a dangerous job, all right, but somebody has to do it.

Feudal Levy = "All of a Lord's subjects may be obliged to fight for him when times are hard. Even the lowliest peasant can be pressed into military service. These civilians are known as the levy, and they include craftsmen, farmers and other relatively well-to-do individuals as well as less reputable souls."

Foot Retainers = Likely a defunct unit from the 4th edition of Warhammer, could be added though. Found on page 9.
https://www.scribd.com/doc/306333864...Edition-Armies

Freemen = "A small but growing middle class of commoners, also referred to as Freemen, make up both the professional trades and merchant class within Bretonnian society. Although literate for the most part they can be either self taught, or instructed by monks as there are no public schools within Bretonnia. All education is thus done by private arrangement and comes from the many Grail Monasteries for a steep price. Artisans, craftsmen and skilled semi-professionals live almost exclusively within the Kingdom's few cities and numerous larger towns, situated mostly along the kingdoms coasts and rivers."
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Bretonnia

Halberd-at-Arms = Men-at-arms with a Halberd, available from 5th edition army book.

Rascals = Listed on page 66 of the 3rd edition of Warhammer. “When bretonnian armies take to the field they are supported by the peasant rascalry, scum of the lowest order, herded into battle to fulfill their meagre fuedal obligations.” Wield hand weapons. Variants include; Hand Weapon and Shield, Spears, Spears and Shields.
https://i.imgur.com/x8FZ2oT.jpg 3rd Ed. Armies Book

Retainers = "These are personal household troops brought along to the battle by the Knights and other Nobles of Bretonnia. They wear the livery of their feudal Lord who may well be one of the Knights fighting elsewhere in the army alongside his brother Knights. Retainers are well trained and are properly equipped and led. This means that they are amongst the best troops in the Bretonnian army."
https://i.imgur.com/uAZPNWn.png White Dwarf 137

Snail Hounds = "The Giant Snail is a peaceable vegetarian with little interest in anything and almost no brain. Few people would attack one. The Bretonnians hunt them during the winter, when the Snails hibernate in the forests around Mousillon. Hunting sleeping snails is an exacting sport, and one for which the famous Bretonnian Snail Hound is superbly adapted: it is said these large, indolent animals can catch the scent of a giant snail from up to a mile away, indicating their excitement by slowly wagging their tails and loping towards their prey. Apart from Bretonnians, who eat them, these creatures are largely left alone, although their shells are sometimes used to make windows, lamp fittings, combs and other small decorative items."

War Machines

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Bolt Thrower = A defunct unit but one I feel is suitable for the Bretonnians to use still, personally I’d call it a Ballista. Found on page 9.
https://www.scribd.com/doc/306333864...Edition-Armies

Floating Galleon = Not an official name for the unit as there is no official name. At the top of the image is a galleon that is floating in the air, obviously using magic.
https://img.fireden.net/tg/image/146...1260662189.jpg

War Chateau = Not an official name as there is no official name. At the centre of the image is a war wagon with a lions head and a unicorns horn. This could be considered a war machine of Bretonnia, but I've no idea of its purpose.

Siege Train

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

"The only realistic solution to breaking massive fortifications is to employ a formidable siege train which includes siege engines of gigantic proportions capable of smashing down the strongest walls, gates and towers quickly. These machines are so huge that they cannot easily be constructed in the field. Instead, they must be manufactured in advance, often in pre-fabricated sections which can be transported in wagons, on ships, or stored until needed in fortresses."
https://i.imgur.com/SZ5PSHZ.png White Dwarf 155

The Giant Battering Ram = "The giant battering ram is cut from the tallest and strongest tree in the realm and shod with a massive iron or bronze head. Hundreds of men are needed to pull the ropes that swing the ram to strike a gate or fortress wall. One blow will smash great oak doors like matchwood or crumbles masonry into powder, collapsing towers and walls like sand castles. The hides of a thousand beasts form its canopy, protecting the operators from the arrows of the defenders."
https://i.imgur.com/SZ5PSHZ.png White Dwarf 155

The Monstrous Stone Thrower = "This is a catapult operated by a massive counterweight which swings a long shaft and hurls a boulder a very great distance. The huge boulder will smash any ramparts that it strikes. The catapult is made of thick timbers to withstand the stress and strain, but the parts can be transported individually on wagons and are lashed togehter into a catapult in the siege lines."
https://i.imgur.com/SZ5PSHZ.png White Dwarf 155

The Siege Tower = "Hundreds of wagons are required to carry the pre-fabricated timbers that make up the siege tower, and when these are put together the siege tower will be raised higher than any known wall. Bolt throwers shoot out of port holes on each of its many levels. A drawbridge or spiked corvus is ready on the top of the tower to be dropped on the enemy battlements allowing attackers to swarm across, constantly reinforced by a steam stream of soldiers."

Regiments of Renown

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Aldrad’s Lance = The aging Duke of Lyonesse, not believing that his son Aldrad was ready to inherit the dukedom, despatched his wayward heir to join his old friend Theodric at La Maisontaal. It was the duke's plan that Aldrad would learn a certain pious discipline under Theodric's watchful gaze – all the more so as his drinking companions would remain in Lyonesse.

Baldemar’s Questing Retinue = ”Baldemar de Bastonne and his retinue seek the Grail.”
https://web.archive.org/web/20081214.../aquitaine.htm

Crusaders of Bretonnia = Bright caparisons and shining steel glowed radiantly in the light of the twin-tailed comet ahead, and the spirits of those who wore them glowed brightly too, buoyed by the chance to uphold the virtues of their realm. The corrupt and the evil would die on the points of a thousand lances.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...s_of_Bretonnia

Defenders of the Poor = "Within the confines of the forest are a small band of outlaws, lead by self-styled 'Defender of the Poor', Hugh of Lowbough. He and his men are complete thugs who would willingly cut the throats of their own mothers were there profits to be made."
https://i.imgur.com/oHyn88T.png White Dwarf 83

Sir Dagobert the Thrice-Blessed = ”Sir Dagobert the Thrice-Blessed, was a heroic Grail Knight and Paladin of Bretonnia, who, after his death became a sacred Grail Reliquae. Even in death, Dagobert would continue to fight the enemies of Bretonnia. Most notably an army of goblins and their mighty Arachnarok Queen.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Sir_Dagobert

Skyhost = When the Bretonnians rode to war, they filled the sky as well as the lands with the majesty of their approach. High Paladin Louen Leoncoeur rode his hippogryph at the head of a wedge of eighty Pegasus Knights, many of them promoted from Parravon’s finest sky-jousts or Couronne’s famous Tournament Celestial.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Skyhost

The Bowmen of Bergerac = Robin Hood-esque outlaws, fought alongside an old special character from a Bretonnian rulebook.
http://whfb.lexicanum.com/wiki/Outlaw

The Mob = Most were masterless, but rightly judged that they stood a better chance of survival by following in Jerrod's wake, than by striking out for themselves in the beastman-haunted landscape. Many a Chaos worshipper had underestimated these peasants, thinking them weak and cowardly.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/The_Mob

The Seven Knights = "A Bretonnian troubadour song tells of a heroic battle in which seven gallant knights fought against many times their number of Goblins. The knights armed themselves with holy relics from the shrine and took up their positions awaiting the onslaught. The Goblins appeared and tried to swarm across the bridge as well as various points along the stream, only to be hurled back by the reckless bravery of the knights, charging into the hordes."
https://i.imgur.com/gHj7nam.png Warhammer 7th Edition Rule Book

The Seven of Salles = ”This band of Grail Knights all sipped from the sacred chalice that same day after slaying the Dragon Hallerung in the Fields of Salles. Thus their fates were bound together. It is said by some that at the completion of their great quest, the Lady of the Lake laid a new mission upon them - a quest so important and secret that the very destiny of Bretonnia and perhaps the Old World hinges upon it.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Seven_of_Salles

The Three Sisters of Ancelious = The Three Sisters of Ancelious were a trio of beautiful Grail Damsel in service to the Lady of the Lake. It is a rare and sad honour to have three daughters chosen by the Fay Enchantress, as Evroul of Mousillon did. Evroul did not see his daughters for some ten years after Guerrite's disappearance – not until the Lady sent them to kill him for siding with Mallobaude in the civil war.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...s_of_Ancelioux

Tristan de la Tour's Grail Companions = Led by Tristan de la Tour they are determined to destroy the Undead Grail Knights, recently re-animated by the Dread King's necromatic power

Man O' War Navy

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Broadside Cannons = Seems Galleons use these, but gunpowder isn’t compatible with Bretonnians on the land, but at sea it might be another matter. I don’t know for certain.
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/MOWrulebook.pdf

Buccaneer = Buccaneers patrol the coast of Bretonnia. They are small craft crewed by private individuals who are chartered by the King to keep the sea lanes clear. In times of war these small, catapult-armed ships are used to swell the numbers of the fleet.
http://www.collecting-citadel-miniat...aneers_Box.jpg
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/MOWrulebook.pdf

Buccaneers = Their crews tend to be villainous individuals, lacking the discipline and elan of Corsair crews. Many are condemned criminals, spared the gallows if they will sign on the crew of a Buccaneer. The offers on these ships are among the hardest men afloat, maintaining discipline among their men with fear and the lash.
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/MOWrulebook.pdf

Buccaneer Catapult = Buccaneers are armed with catapults; large mechanical devices which can lob huge rocks enormous distances.
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/MOWrulebook.pdf

Corsair = Corsairs are the greatest ship of the line. They are swift heavily armed craft ideal for long sea voyages and deadly combat. In battle their thunderous broadsides strike terror into the hearts of bretonnia’s enemies.
http://www.collecting-citadel-miniat...rsairs_Box.jpg
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/MOWrulebook.pdf

Corsairs = Each ship’s crew is taught to respect their captain and believe their ship is the finest craft that has ever sailed. This means there is tremendous rivalry among the crews to prove their valour and skill, and each ship in a squadron will vie to sink the most enemy ships.
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/MOWrulebook.pdf

Galleon = Galleons are built in the King’s shipyard from carefully selected oak timbers. The laying of each keel is a notable occasion marked by a great religious service as the keel is blessed. By tradition each galleon is crewed by volunteers, carefully selected from the ranks of the navy; they are an elite crew.
http://www.collecting-citadel-miniat...alleon_Box.jpg
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/MOWrulebook.pdf

Galleon Shipmates = By tradition each galleon is crewed by volunteers, carefully selected from the ranks of the navy; they are an elite crew, proud of their ship and their skill in handling her.
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/MOWrulebook.pdf

Naval Archers = Bretonnian ships pack their decks with regiments of archers, capable of picking off any flyers at some distance with well-aimed longbow shots.
http://jake.ryft.org/warhammer/mowstuff/SOBRulebook.pdf

Pegasus Riders = I’m assuming they are the same as the Pegasus Knights already in the game.

Special and Named Characters

Here is contained a full list of every possible Legendary Lord or Legendary Hero that I could find for Bretonnia, excluding those who are long dead or Mousillon who shall eventually be found in the Vampire Counts thread. I have split them into different categories for each Bretonnian Duchy and whether they suit being Lords or Heroes, so it is easier to know which they are best suited to being added to, if someone wished to add them to the game. Also, there are a fair number that I couldn't place into one territory or other, so I guess they'd be free to put wherever someone wanted. Without further ado, here we go.

https://www.scribd.com/doc/225409356...ous-quest-1997

Alloys of Montjoie = Today he watches over and protects the Grail Chapel of Quenelles. This is taken from an Unofficial Source, but it seems to be well-researched and was an attempt to update Special Characters from the first few editions of Warhammer.
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_Re...pCVmxicGM/edit

Baron de Sude of Quenelles = ”The youngest son of the Baron de Sude of Quenelles, he first found fame when the ghost of a long dead Duke instructed him to free the land around the small town of Moreux from an evil menace.”
http://web.archive.org/web/200303062...eer/tybalt.htm

Earl Hincmar of the Massif Orcal = Earl Hincmar is the eldest son of the Duke’s elder sister. He is also lord of a large fief around the Massif Orcal and known for his great courage in the face of Orc raids. He is feared even by his own vassals, as he is famous for the arbitrary cruelty of his “justice.”
[U]http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Quenelles[U]

Elanor of Quenelles, Damsel of the Lady = As a virgin, she decided to enter service in the grail chapel of Quenelles, she became famous for having healed many knights and she even brought some back from the doorstep of death. From the Perilous Quest.
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_Re...pCVmxicGM/edit
https://www.scribd.com/doc/225409356...ous-quest-1997

Reolus the Wise = ”Relous was viewed by other knights in awe. He was a giant of a man who's eyes blazed with fey light, bedecked in shining armour that was a work of inspired artistry, every inch covered in intricate detailing, engravings and inlaid with finely worked silver. A shimmering cloak of blue, lined with soft fur, fluttered behind him, held in place by a heavy golden brooch in the shape of the Lady's Grail. He was adorned with countless devotional tokens and sacred icons, from holy beads to miniature pendants carved from finger bones of saints into the likeness of The Lady. His helmet was topped by a majestic unicorn of silver, surrounded by a host of candles that cast a halo of light around his person. Every drop of blood which fell upon him in battle, slid off his person as if it were oil, leaving the sacred warrior pristine, even in the most gory of battles.”

Tales of the Old World Short Story: A Gentleman's War

Guillaume Deschamps, Master Wizard = ”He is still an active adventurer, fighting against the dark forces that despoil the works of life. As a result, he has a genuine understanding of the adventurer’s life and true respect for fellow adventurers. He expects them to return that respect, and will, if necessary, warn them that refusing to take advice from those more experienced is a good way to die horribly.” - Shared with Imperial.

Morgiana le Fay, The Fay Enchantress = A figure of awe and inspiration, the Fay Enchantress is the personal representative of the Lady of the Lake, and as such is the most influential figure in all of Bretonnia.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Fay_Enchantress

Philippe d’Artaud = ”As a young knight, d’Artaud gave up the keep and lands that were his due in order to quest for the grail. Now, almost 20 years later, this seasoned veteran quests ever still. Long ago, d’Artaud’s faithful steed died in battle, thus this brave knight fights on foot, defends the weak and helpless, and tirelessly seeks The Grail. He was such an inspiration upon the battlefield that those who fought beside him would redouble their efforts, fighting even harder in his noble presence.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...ipe_d%27Artaud

The Green Knight = It was also said that he is the traditional nemesis of a Questing Knight, duelling them to see if they are worthy of the Lady's blessing, thus allowing them to drink from the Grail. He slew many an impure knight, others like Louen Leoncoeur, Calard and Bohemond Beastslayer would prove their worth, or best him in combat, becoming mighty Grail knights.
http://whfb.lexicanum.com/wiki/Gilles_le_Breton

Viscount d’Alembençon = ”He was a giant of a man, clad in a knight’s full plate. His armour was thicker-set than Helborg’s and looked very old. The outline of a goblet had been graven into the knight’s breastplate, decorated with fine golden tracery and surrounded by an elaborate, oak-leafed halo. For all its age, the armour had obviously been reverently treated – delicate flutes of beaten metal winked in the morning sun, lending the curved steel an almost palpable glow. The warrior wore a close-faced helm, giving nothing of his features away and a beautiful crimson cloak hung from his shoulders, outlined with black and gold lozenges. Once the Viscount had reached Helborg, he drew a mighty longsword which glowed with a faint golden light.”

This is taken from an Unofficial Source, but it seems to be well-researched and was an attempt to update Special Characters from the first few editions of Warhammer.

Hermit Knight of Malmont = ”No one knows the true name of the Hermit of Malmont, nor the reasons that drove him to live as a recluse. He guards an isolated*Grail Chapel, on the slopes of Malmont, the great peak that overlooks the entire Massif d’Orquemont. Despite his advanced age, he is a still a Grail Knight, and thus a ferocious warrior. The skulls of many*Dragons*lining the path are eloquent testimony to his martial valour. The hermit does not possess a mount: he has no need, since, among the slopes and masses of fallen rocks, only a man on foot could fight. As soon as a dragon captures a maiden, the hermit comes to challenge him in his lair without any fear and no damsel shall be abandoned as a meal to dragonlings as long as he and his powerful sword are in the area.”

Jasperre, the Dragonslayer = In his quest for the Grail he had slain many powerful monsters, which made him a celebrated hero. His greatest feat was freeing Isabeau, the King's daughter from the clutches of the dragon Malgrimace, killing the mighty beast and taking its claw as a trophy, he became known as a renowned dragonslayer, killing many of Malgrimaces lesser breed.

Leofric Carrard, Questing Knight = Originates from Quenelles. Wields an elven weapon called the Blade of Midnight that has a milky glow and rides an elven steed called Aeneor, which is white with a copper mane and has a horrible looking scar in its chest from a spear wound. He also as a blue silken scarf given by Helene, the woman who would become his wife, as a Lady's Favour after he unhorsed Duke Chilfoy of Artois. Among his achievements is killing a Dereliche and braving Athel Loren without dying. He seems to respect the Code of the Herrimaults, and is somewhat unsure if the peasantry are being fairly treated after seeing how happy a free peasant town was.

Lucas the Younger = ”During the bloody siege Archaon duelled against Lucas' young and arrogant grandson. Lucas the Younger was far less skilled than his ancestor but still managed to survive against Archaon thanks to his*Hippogryph.”

After a fierce skirmish Sir DuClaw was successful in his duty and had personally slain at least one of monstrous trolls atop the bridge. The Paladin was rewarded for his deed, the bride-to-be gifted him with a potion concocted from the trolls blood, which would enhance his strength.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Sir_DuClaw

Sir Gilles de Moreaux = ”In spite of himself, Claude felt the sound cutting through his ill humour. This de Moreaux, Gilles, the third of his line to rely upon the old retainer’s good offices, was the first to have taken care of his own weapons. And when Claude’s rheumatism had bitten deep, curling and crippling his hands, Sir Gilles himself had ordered the older man to rest whilst he foraged and rooted for the herbs needed for a cure. Not many knights would have lowered themselves so far as to serve a servant.”
Tales of the Old World Short Story - Faith

Sir Leon the Fair = ”It was all the fault of Gilles’s brother, Leon. Leon the brave. Leon the fair. Leon who, after a scant two weeks of questing, had returned with a massive troll’s head the size of a cartwheel and the blessing of the Lady.”

Champions

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Beldane = ”Beldane would have found the scene unfolding before him amusing if capturing this legendary creature weren’t so damned important. Legend tells that whoever subdues the magnificent beast will be shown visions of the Fay Enchantress and how to free her from her vile captors. More shouting and cursing erupted from the undergrowth to Beldanes right as the White Stag charged forth in a shower of leaves, twigs, and clods of dirt.”

Grimoald = ”Grimoald's warriors charged toward the dark, sweating stone of the tower, their footfalls making wet, sucking sounds in the murky coastal water and sludge that surrounded this evil place. The whole area, so close to Mousillon's corrupting touch, stank of rotting meat.”
https://web.archive.org/web/20070824...os/cleanse.htm

Havelock, Slayer of the Jabberwocky = ”Havelock pulled himself up to his full height even though it pained him. The beating he had taken from his previous foe would surely slow his sword in the coming battle against this creature. Still, he stood against it while his servants cowered behind him like frightened children.” He slew a Jabberwocky.

Havelock, Squire of Leofric Carrard = Originally from Gisoreux, he is the squire to Leofric Carrard and takes part in his adventures. Also is the only human other than Leofric that the elven steed Aeneor can abide. Skilled with a bow.

Montyglaive = ”Kneeling beside the fallen warrior, Montyglaive could hear the massive knight's breathing coming in laboured, shallow gasps. The Black Knight's armour was rent and dented in numerous places, as was Montyglaive's own, though the dark knight was in much worse shape. Shards of lacquered wood from Montyglaive's lance protruded from the black armour in a mess of splinters and blood.”
https://web.archive.org/web/20070824...s/nonepass.htm

Philibert the Loon = ”The Giant ran straight through the modest rock-and-timber peasant hovel and sent stone, splinters of wood, and a clutch of hens scattering in all directions. Though arrows jutted from its thick hide and crimson gashes laced its legs, the colossus showed no signs of slowing. Instead, it seemed angrier than ever. It was with this anger and considerable forward momentum that the monster bore down on Philibert the Loon. Philibert had already lost his warhorse to the enraged creature. The Giant had unseated him with a wellplaced blow from an uprooted tree and then grabbed his panicking steed with a huge, fleshy hand. With a coarse yell, the Giant tossed the terrified animal out of the village.”

Sir Guillame de Montvert = A knight that was captured by Otto von Eisenkopf. He stole his finest horse.

PaulH's Suggested Bretonnian Factional Unit Lists

The following lists are those designed by myself using the units, lords and heroes listed in the first two posts. I cannot claim that they're perfect or that they are varied (as Bretonnians are pretty unvaried, unfortunately), but I've tried to make them all make sense and to feel loreful. In addition to the dukedoms we see in the game, I've added a couple that are missing, as well as a Peasant Rebellion force.

Magical Weapons, Armour, Amulets, Scrolls and Other Items

This section deals in those magical items that can be used by this faction. This is by no means a full list, I doubt I'll ever get that, but it will provide modders with information if they wish to add new magical weapons, armour and items into the game to be used.

Common Magic Items

Magic Weapons

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Basilisk Blade = ”Even after death the bones of a Basilisk poison the world around them, exuding a foul aura that can putrefy flesh and corrode metal. Weapons fashioned from the rancid bones recovered from Basilisk remains are terrifyingly deadly, but thankfully rare as they are just as deadly to their wielders as they are to their victims.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...V96TFBvQ1dNZGc Monstrous Arcanum

Birth-sword of Carcassonne = ”At birth, all noble sons in the Dukedom of Carcassonne are made to touch a specially forged blade, and this weapon hangs above their cots until they reach an age when they can wield it. This mirrors the story of the original duke, Lambard, who was said to have grasped a sword even before suckling at his mother’s bosom.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Warhammer Fantasy Bretonnian 6th Edition Army Book

Cold Iron Blade = ”Ancient lore claims that only iron weapons shaped without the use of fire can harm the spirits that infest certain regions of the world. Only the strongest of smiths can perform such a feat, hammering the metal into shape with brute strength before such artefacts are enchanted. Though the results are always crudely shaped, their potency against the ephemeral creatures is unquestionable.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...V96TFBvQ1dNZGc Monstrous Arcanum

The Lash of Itzaotyl = ”Used by the servants of the Old Ones to subdue the massive beasts that stalked the world at the dawn of time, the ancient Last of Itzaotyl ensnares all it touches with an unbreakable tendril of pure magical essence. Since its theft from the Lizardmen, by the daughters of Naggaroth millennia ago, it has known many masters and current whereabouts are unknown.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...V96TFBvQ1dNZGc Monstrous Arcanum

Scintillating Shields, whether they be the items spoken of in legend or more recent creations wrought by wizard-craft, fetch a prince’s ransom when rumours of Basilisk or Cockatrice attack spread.”

Warpscale Pendant = ”Crafted from the deformed scales of a Warpfire Dragon, these eerily worked talismans are the product not of twisted Skaven ingenuity as some suspect but rather of some unseen agency believed to be connected to the ruling cabals of the Tilean City-states. Ensorcelled to protect the wearer against weapons fuelled by warpstone, many Skaven wizards covet such items as a measure against assassination by their own kind - though the fear Warpfire Dragon’s cause among the warpstone-laden holds of the Skaven keeps them rare.”

Sacrificial Banner = ”Covered with arcane patterns daubed in blood and draped in ornate sigils and charms the Sacrificial Banner looks impressive, but its real purpose is rarely explained to those troops ‘honoured’ with its care.

Windcatcher Prism = ”This peculiar bauble was crafted long ago, its purpose very much tied to storms of magic.

Black Book of Ibn Naggazar = ”Ibn Naggazar was a brilliant, if somewhat maniacal, Arabyan sorcerer. Whilst it is unknown whether his madness sprang from isolation, too many attempts at creating intoxicating ‘elixirs’ or the honeyed promises of whispering Daemons, there can be no doubt that he was utterly insane. No rational wizard would create a book inked on the skin of his closest family, much less constantly follow its advice.”

Silverstone Axe = ”In the ancient barrows that dot the Empire, huge enchanted axes forged of gromril, known to ancient men as Silverstone, have been found. Inert until the storms of magic howl, these axes are so heavy that only the strongest warriors can lift them and then impact shakes the ground, knocking armoured warriors from their feet while against wizards their effects are even more potent as the winds of magic lash and recoil at their blows. When a storm of magic rages these weapons are brought to the battlefield once again to bring down the titanic beasts set loose upon the world.” - Magic Weapon

This deadly artefact has been sought out by many down the centuries, and it has passed through the hands of many tyrants, arch-sorcerers, wizards and kings, and at its use the destruction of cities and slaughter of armies has been laid. When unleashed the power of the crucible is erratic and dangerously unstable, but it can unleash devastation and even create nightmarish doppelgangers of slain monsters to fight at the wielder’s bidding. The power of the Crucible of Horrors is treacherous however, as more than one would be conqueror has found to their cost.” - Enchanted Items

Rarely do artefacts of this fell civilisation reach the Old World and all are steeped in blood and misunderstood power. One such artefact is the White Sistrum, a strange ivory-grown, drum shaped like an hourglass, whose discordant music brings madness and death, and evokes the terrible rites of the Naga.” - Arcane Item

This is an attempt to collate important snippets of lore that I have found during my research into units.
