And as i recall to pray you didn't roll off then choose to pray. You chose to prat andautomatically gave you opponent the cgoice of first or second.

I don't think so. If you pray, your opponent automatically goes first. No rolls unless they're also Brettonians who chose to pray.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7275928.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7275928.page GMT Bretonians and praying

That's exactly how it works. I'll quote the book for you.

"The Bret player may choose to pray for the blessing of the lady before the battle begins but after both players have deployed their army. The enemy can then choose to take the first or second turn, as the whole bretonnian army must kneel to pray before the fight."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7275939.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7275939.page GMT Bretonians and praying
Not sure why you'd ever choose to not go first though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7275953.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7275953.page GMT Bretonians and praying

Hmmmm. I guess my Brettonian opponents have been slightly lying. They always said praying meant they could only go second.

If it's against something like a mono-khorne army in blood and glory, you can do pretty well on your first turn. Especially with the +d6 charge banner.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7275989.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7275989.page GMT Re:Bretonians and praying http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7298843.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7298843.page GMT Re:Bretonians and praying http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7299785.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7299785.page GMT Re:Bretonians and praying

Can we get a rules quote on it? Because my memory says it was 'the other player gets to choose whether to go first or not.'

Easy, you go first and move up, Bret player can get off turn 1 charges on you. If they go first, they either sit still (not what a Lance of knights really wants to do) or move up and then you possibly can charge the knights on your turn two instead of taking a charge on their turn 1.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7300077.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7300077.page GMT Bretonians and praying With Brets, the ideal turn for charging is usually 4 (or even 5) as you have high firepower with 2 trebuchets and some bow/magical support for chaff or mopping up]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7300658.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7300658.page GMT Re:Bretonians and praying
And the two other units a half-inch back will have at worst an 8+, giving them a slightly-better than 50% chance each of completing the charge as well, or putting them in position to counter-charge the enemy if they get lucky.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7307314.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/618881/7307314.page GMT Bretonians and praying

Grey is right. You choose to pray before dice are rolled. Opponent chooses 1st or 2nd. With current rules and missions in warhammer, their is very rarely a good reason to go 2nd.

Reread that. You're stating exactly what I said, but agreeing with the guy who says that praying is an automatic first turn for the bret opponent.
