    Yeah but waht about Lady of the Lake, didn't End Times and AoS fluff changed Bretonnia fluff too much to recover it in any form ? (unlike TK)

    There is no reason for Questing Knights, Grail Knights,Green Knight, Errand Knights,Lady wizards etc. to live in AoS setting, 

    I already discussed earlier how much potential the revelations in the plot had for creating new fluff for Bretonnians coming from that pocket dimension so I won't go into that again in response here.

    But, I do want to say that considering that you can do anything you want in AoS due to the high fantasy aspect of the setting I think that it's even easier to fit any crazy fluff reasons for armies you want in it.

    I've actually seen Bretonnia like models referenced in the lore already. One of the short stories talked about a kingdom under attack by Khorne that had knights in shining armour and bright colours pennants and also had descriptions of men at arms.

    Durthu isn't back FYI. Not sure about several of the others either.

    I suppose not technically but his spiritual idea is and so I'm saying you could do the same thing with Bretonnians.

    Thank you. I feel like Bretonnia Had so much potential for new cool and original content/lore/rules unique to them but they never had a chance.

    After reading some more I read that during the end times the lady had a sort of realm where she created specifically for the brets and in the apocolypse she had her daughter bring all the remaining brets to her new created realm and saved what was left of Bretonnia. I feel this is one key part in Lore that can help forge this Battletome background.

    On the conversation of the King. It seems he did "die" but that is not a problem the way I see it, if we are going to try to stick with lore as best as we could. I am merely brainstorming here so other ideas and opinions are welcome. The same way TK solved the problem of "Settra is Incapacitated" issue, I think can be done for the Brets and their king. By name, it will be the "next king" or a viable replacement for the lore but the rules will be literally the same because rulewise it is still the original king. As shown here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3IzQocsfEp_WXFPbXFFVXNHVG8/view

    just an Idea anyway to get things going and maybe get people enticed and understand what We might be going for this project.

    Hope That I get someone to join the team soon. If I might ask someone to help me in the right direction to spread the word on the Brets main forum, where to post it there, please do!

    The Bretonnia pocket dimension had the souls of Bretonnians in it so they could easily have had Louen reborn. After all Drycha and Durthu died but are back. Heck, Alarielle, Mannfred, Nagash, Tyrion and Teclis died. Death doesn't seem to matter much to the writers of AoS fluff so it shouldn't stop you either.

    That said even a genetic "Free People's" version of Bretonnia that doesn't specifically reference their old lore would still be fine with me.

  4. This is great. Bretonnia really needs it. The order allegiance ability is pretty useless for them. Their banners give the nobles rerolls already and Louen makes them immune to battleshock so they really need an upgrade in that way.

  5. Here's a very simple skirmish scenario for beginners to try out in store that I came up with a while ago. This kind of restriction list would work well I think.

    1 unit with no more than 10 wounds. No better than 4+ saves. No ranged weapons.
    or

    1 unit with no more than 20 wounds. No better than 6+ (or - saves). No ranged weapons.

    and
    1 hero with no more than 5 wounds.
