Well, after finding myself having to sell my ogres I gathered due to financial stuff dealing with school , I was forced to sell them but thankfully I got an awesome deal. Not only did I get $150 bucks for my 3,000 points of Ogres, I also managed to get my hands on a small Bretonnian army the guy didn't want anymore since he is planning to jump on the Tomb King band-wagon, and the Ogres would be a perfect, easy army for his son to play as. So after gathering what he had, I sat down with the army book and began browsing the sites to see what effective things Bretonnians can run in this edition, and I guess its say its safe to start off with the Lord. Now after browsing through the book, this is what I came up with:

*Lord:
-w/Lance, Birth-Sword of Carcasson, Armor of Agilulf, Virtue of Heroism, Barded Warhorse

Now as you can see, he will have 4x WS10, S6 attacks on the charge, w/4x WS10 S5 attacks in other rounds of combat that make opponents reroll successful armor saves, has a 2+ armor save and of course, has heroic killing blow. Though it looks good, I'm still not to sure if it is smart to switch out something to give my Lord a better ward save then the one he gets standard with the lady's blessing since a 6+ ward save against anything under S5 seems a bit light to me or am I worrying over nothing.

Besides this, I have:

*(24x) Knights (12x Errant and 12x KOTR, each w/Full command).
*(30x) Men-@-Arms w/Full Command
*(1x) Damsel on foot
*(1x) BSB

Now I'm not looking for help in putting together an army list, just looking for some tactical advice from any veteran Bretonnian players on how to play these guys, and any ideas or units which have been effective for you and I really appreciate the help mates.

This might help:

Thnaks for the link HoverBoy. Anyone else have any advice on how to run these guys because I sure could use the help.

Not a bretonnian player but usually see a mandatory 2 trebuchets, think they are Str 10(under hole) and 5 ("splash" damage) plus they are cheap. More M@A would be nice, but I've heard of people fielding knights only.

Yeah Str 5(10) for only 90 points....

For comparison dwarf grudgethrowers that are runed for str 5(10) are like 170 points.

But those are bad rune combinations on the stone thrower. You've burned two runes to get to that when you really need a better combo.
