FOR THE LADY!
Bretonnian Essentials:
The knights of Bretonnia are renowned throughout the Warhammer world for their skill at arms, their bravery and chivalry, and for their undying faith in their goddess, the Lady of the Lake. When it marches to war, the Bretonnian army is an impressive sight to behold, with the proud ranks of knights backed up with scores of low-born peasants.
"With lance and blade, we will strike down the cowardly enemy. We, the proud knights of Bretonnia, will ride them down. With faith in the Lady, we will be impervious to harm. We will be remembered always, our heroic deeds living beyond our years. For Bretonnia, and for the Lady, charge!"
- Duke Bohemond
the Beastslayer,
at the Battle of Grismar Crossing.
