Just been having a look at some Bretonian list and tactic ideas to see how theyre normally played as Im building an army at the moment.

I was interested in the mounted yeomen and the questing knights but I hate the models so I was thinking of custom making them from plastic kits. How do you find the yeomen work? I thought you would probably need to take a lot of them? Cant give you any constructive critisism other than that, and is it not better to take bigger units of knights? But then again, I dont really know so its more like Im asking you questions!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/426780/3871599.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/426780/3871599.page GMT Re:Good Lord! 2500 Bretonnians with 2 Lords FAQ'd the non-magical weapons requirement out.
Also consolidate 2 of the KOTR units inot 1 big unit, so you don't have to worry about double charging as much, and have more room to manuever.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/426780/3871759.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/426780/3871759.page GMT Re:Good Lord! 2500 Bretonnians with 2 Lords

I find yeoman to be quite valuable. I take them small because it is meant to be completely disposable. I use them to pop fanatics out of NG units, die while squishing manglers, charge war machines, and misdirect opponents charges. They rarely survive a battle, but they are often so much more valuable than the points they cost.

I already took the Heartwood Lance magical weapon. It allows me to reroll failed wound rolls. I like this item because after hitting, if I fail to wound it's another attempt to get the KB. Same essential purpose as extra attacks, but on the wound roll instead of the number of attacks. Plus, on the charge it is +2 STR, versus a magical sword leaving me at STR 4.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/426780/3873687.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/426780/3873687.page GMT Good Lord! 2500 Bretonnians with 2 Lords
