	*'''Bretonnian Lord:''' On par with the ~~empires~~ Grandmasters. His basic gear, rules, and stats remain the same as well as his points, 110 vanilla. But with many virtues having a 5pt discount, they get a bit more money to spend on other things for their Magic Item allowance. However, the Questing and Grail Vows now cost more, so it balanced out. (However, since the Vows aren't under the Magical Item allowance, they still get just a sliver more allowance with particular Virtues meaning you can now take that Magic Item that used to be JUST out of your budget for him. All basic weapon options (Lance, G. Sword, etc.) remain the same price, but a Warhorse is now 3 more points for him but 5 fewer points if he takes a Pegasus.		*'''Bretonnian Lord:''' On par with the Empire's Grandmasters.

	**And while you can be upset that you have a specific pool of Magical Items about a fourth the size of the original, chances are you probably didn't use them too much. And you'll probably find a suitable replacement in the Rulebook's generic Items. Overall, pretty much the same Lord except for a much better Hippogryph.		**And while you can be upset that you have a specific pool of Magical Items about a fourth the size of the original, chances are you probably didn't use them too much.

	*'''[[Tristran le Troubadour\|Tristan the Troubadour and Jules the Jongleur]]:''' 175pts. Hard to kill Knight and Bard. Decent gimmick unit. Fortunately, the two of them can split up after deployment, allowing you to throw the bard to act with an annoying band of peasants while Tristan's songs bolster his own band.		*'''[[Tristran le Troubadour\|Tristan the Troubadour and Jules the Jongleur]]:''' 175pts.

	*'''[[Betrand the Brigand]]:''' 140pts. Basically Robin Hood, Bretonnian style.

	*'''[[Roland le Marechal\|Roland the Marshal]]:''' 145pts. Paladin Support hero, in addition to his Virtue of Stoicism(gives unit lizardman coldblooded), he gives 12" +1ld to rally test, he counts as a musician, and has a horn that turns off all flying rules for the enemy for a turn. Ok at the role of keeping knights in the fight, presents form run of the field, and shutdown flying units.		*'''[[Roland le Marechal\|Roland the Marshal]]:''' 145pts.

	* '''The Lance Formation:''' Basically the same as before, except now they only benefit from the Formation whenever the unit is precisely 3 models wide like monstrous calvery along with getting bonus strength on impact hits each to full rank, Double their unit strength on a successful charge and win the combat round for the purposes of denying enemy steadfast, and Fight ~~an extra Rank rule~~ in ~~all but name~~. Can uniquely have 5 ranks for 15 horse buses. Your Spellcasters get to be protectively sandwiched between knights and still support (but no line of sight)~~, all models on flanks of the second and third rank are treated as being in the front row~~; maybe a small bonus (actually a big one), but so a big help.		* '''The Lance Formation:''' Basically the same as before, except now they only benefit from the Formation whenever the unit is precisely 3 models wide like monstrous calvery along with getting bonus strength on impact hits each to full rank, Double their unit strength on a successful charge and win the combat round for the purposes of denying enemy steadfast, and Fight in Extra Ranks (1) and each rider make up to 3 supporting attacks because why not.

	*'''Peasant's Duty:''' Your chaff can use a knightly unit's Ld if they are within 6" of each other. Also, their raggedy standards don't give enemies VP when captured.		*'''Peasant's Duty:''' Your chaff can use a knightly unit's Ld if they are within 6" of each other.

	*'''Sacrosanctum of the Lady:''' Your magic cart. Oh, boy. This unit is pretty good. Now, it doesn't belong in combat despite being a chariot (it'd probably be better to count it as a Warshrine) and it doesn't have any ranged abilities. Instead, the Damsel is a priest that drives along sides galloping knights to give them her blessing. And man oh man, she is good. With Toughness 5 and 5 Wounds, enemies won't be able to blow on this to make it fall apart. Just be sure you don't leave this thing open to attack because when the enemy finds out what this thing can do, they'll gun for it.		*'''Sacrosanctum of the Lady:''' Your magic cart. Oh, boy.

	**'''Shield of Faith:''' All Bretonnian units within 12" of the Sacrosanctum acquire +1 to their Ward save that comes from Blessings of the Lady. This needs little explanation for why this is good. (And remember that The Fay Enchantress gives Grail Knights in her unit a 4+ Ward? Well, with this, [[necron\|it's now a 3+ Ward AND if she casts a spell on them, they reroll 1's for Ward Saves]]...with this blessing, shrug off cannonballs and attacks from the likes of Kroxigor).		**'''Shield of Faith:''' All Bretonnian units within 12" of the Sacrosanctum acquire +1 to their Ward save that comes from Blessings of the Lady.

Still, this will get most of your units to a 5++ (4++ against missiles) and your Grail Knights to a 4++, which is still plenty useful.

It helps in a pinch, especially when your knights fight against a unit with the same Weapon Skill level.		**'''Radiant Light:''' All enemy units within 12" have -1 to both Weapon and Ballistic Skill.

Combine with Silver Lance of the Blessed on a Lord for a close combat monster that will reliably get 7-8 auto-hitting S6 attacks on the charge against most targets.

	* '''Silver Lance of the Blessed:''' 70pts. ~~Same except~~ for the ~~following: This one~~ forces successful enemy armour, and Ward saves to be rerolled, but if the wielder of this Lance flees for any reason, the Lady of the Lake bitch slaps him with D6 hits that are Flaming and Strength 4 with Ignores Armour Saves! Even more killy than before, but be sure you never ever put this guy in combat you think he won't find victory in, or he will pay for it...		* '''Silver Lance of the Blessed:''' 70pts. A lance that, for as long as you have the Blessing, causes all close combat attacks to auto-hit and forces successful enemy armour, and Ward saves to be rerolled, but if the wielder of this Lance flees for any reason, the Lady of the Lake bitch slaps him with D6 hits that are Flaming and Strength 4 with Ignores Armour Saves! Even more killy than before, but be sure you never ever put this guy in combat you think he won't find victory in, or he will pay for it. Expensive, but potentially very nasty, especially against high WS opponents where getting hits to stick can be a challenge. Combos extremely well with the Virtue of Knightly Temper, albeit at the cost of your entire equipment budget for a Lord.
	* '''Sword of Heroes:''' 40pts. You get an extra tax of 5 points, but you also get +2 Strength instead of +1 against foes with T5 or better. It Synergizes well with Virtue of Audacity, though this combo will have to be against a specific foe to be worth it; so avoid taking this in a general list.		* '''Sword of Heroes:''' 40pts.

	* '''Sword of the Lady's Champion:''' 30pts. Grail Vow only. Hey, hey, hey! 10 points taken off, and everything else stays the same. Nice. Against high Toughness armies, this 30pt wrecker will ruin the days of Lizardmen/Ork/Ogre armies and allow you to cut down their dragons/monsters like anything else. Just be sure to take some good Armor or Talismans (I recommend taking this with Virtue of Purity as both are only 45pts, and you can still take more defensive gear).		* '''Sword of the Lady's Champion:''' 30pts.

	* '''Sirienne's Locket:''' 55pts. Lord or Paladin only. You can't lose more than one wound each phase, Even gaining immunity to Killing blow and Multiple wounds rule. You still only have 3 wounds (2 if on your Paladin). When palling around with a life Damsel, ~~your~~ going to last a long time.		* '''Sirienne's Locket:''' 55pts. Lord or Paladin only.

When palling around with a life Damsel, you're going to last a long time. An excellent accessory for a Hippogryph Lord if you're worried he's going to be playing catch with enemy cannonballs.

	* '''The Silver Mirror:''' 45pts. An extra tax of 5 points...must have come from the Virtues. You use this on a spell specifically targeting the magic user wielding this and its unit. The enemy can stop the spell being bounced back to them by using Dispel Die or Power Die. This magical item can only be used once and can't be used on spells that have Irresistible. However, this baby does have its uses. Example: A Slann Mage Priest has already cast 3 spells for the turn, and now he's attempting to use Fiery Convocation on your giant block of Men-At-Arms that have a Level 1 Damsel. He used the remainder of his die to successfully cast it, but your Damsel just so happens to have the Silver Mirror. The Slann has no more die to even try to dispel his own attack, and his Temple Guard along with him are set afire AND he must use future Power Die later on just to dispel it. For spells that affect an entire unit and have a high casting value, this is the perfect counter. Just be sure to engage your Troll Face beforehand for maximum levels of Lols and Rage.		* '''The Silver Mirror:''' 45pts. An extra tax of 5 points...must have come from the Virtues.
