Well, I'm possibly not the most qualified player, however some things I've learned via experience with my own Brets:

Don't bother with braziers. What little benefit you might gain really isn't going to matter in the long run with those guys.

Trebuchets... meh. If you feel you must, then go for it, but I'd sooner drop those and look into taking Grail Knights (since you'll need those to include a Grail Relique at some point anyhow).

Your Paladin selection is a bit odd... if you're giving the BSB empathy for example (and I'm not entirely sure on the rules as far as doing that...), there's no reason to buy him a warhorse. Then again, the army list entry says you must, which to me suggests no Empathy for him... but then, why bother giving him empathy at all? Better to give the BSB something to increase combat res and stick him with either one of the KotR or GK's if you get them. Also, drop that other pally if you need points for GK's.

Knight's Errant... I don't run them, but others love them. I'd say two 5 man units, but that's just my opinion. Don't put any heroes in with them (the Lord and BSB go to the GK's in this case).

KotR are a compulsory choice, so I guess take one unit of them. I'd stick a damsel with them and one with the GK's, or perhaps if you don't need so much magical defense, go down to one damsel with the GK's and use the KotR for other things.

If you have some points leftover, upgrading those three Pegasus Knights to a command unit works well in my experience, but it's up to you.

Those are my thoughts, I'm sure others more experienced will come along, but those are things that did/didn't work out for me. As for the Grail Relique... well, you'll find the points if you want one, I personally don't use them at all, but others swear by them, so best of luck. Personally if you want one, I'd drop the M@A completely and limit those bowmen.

Thanks,
