Editing Gunpowder (Warhammer Fantasy) (section)

===[[Bretonnia]]===

Officially, guns are not allowed on the soil of Bretonnia, as they are seen as unchivalrous and unbecoming of a knight who seeks a fair and honorable fight, which missiles undermine. (And, because the actual reason, the Nobles don't want peasants having weapons capable of piercing through plate armor nor of equalizing themselves in terms of force with the Nobles, which is why there is a general ban on peasants who are not men-at-arms or archers owning weapons).
However, given Bretonnia is a corrupt land, it is likely smugglers and mercenaries (who often disguise themselves as shepherds to travel freely) will try to carry small arms in order to equalize the playing field a bit so long as they are outside the eyes of the law and are able to bribe any officer to look the other way.

The navy of Bretonnia, however, is packed to the brim with gunpowder because of a loophole of them never being on the soil of the nation, and so they have more cannons than they can carry. The Nobility generally don't mind because the merchantile class provides them with goods they desire and makes them incredibly wealthy, along with defending the shores of their nation from Chaos, and so they are tolerated.
