Knights of Bretonnia (Warhammer Omnibus)

Product Information

The army continued west into the duchy of Mousillon, once the most beautiful and fairest land of the Bretonni people. Many more ships lie beneath the surface, and a few hardy adventurers or racketeers from Mousillon have tried to recover valuables from them, but never with much success. The royarch in theory has the legal right to do anything he pleases within his realm, and has the ability to create new laws or legislation at a whim should he wish it. As the years went by, one of the most recent and major battles fought took place near and within La Maisontaal Abbey, located around the Grey Mountains. However, to be King of Bretonnia requires one to become a Grail Knight, and to be a Grail Knight, one must possess the purest of all Humanity's hearts.

Bretonnian recorded history can vary greatly from duchy to duchy, being recorded and maintained such as it is, mostly by monks within the many Grail Monasteries dotting the land. Peasants who can find a noble, no matter how lowly, to plead their case can appeal directly to the king.This map shows the extent of the dukedoms of Bretonnia based upon the ancient Scrolls of Honour and inheritance of the Noble Lords of Bretonnia. During this dark time, not all Knights roaming the lands of Bretonnia followed the sacred codes of chivalry and honour. Now with ten of the Bretonni Lords following his banner, Gilles turned west to face the greenskins despoiling the dukedom of Gisoreux. Hearing of the great victory, his force did not press on into the desert kingdom, feeling saddened at the loss of such a glorious campaign. Antoch - A mighty fortress-city located on the Gulf of Medes in Araby, Antoch is the greatest of Bretonnia's settlements outside of its own lands.

It is seen as a land of honour and virtue, where noble knights keep the domain safe as peasants till the fields, where chivalrous heroes slay monsters and rescue fair damsels. However, the question of whether he should also be proclaimed King of Bretonnia, as old tribal tradition allowed, was much debated.Secondly, the nearest port of embarkation was Miragliano, but the mountain passes approaching it was infested with Skaven making the passage hazardous in the extreme.

After winning their great victory against the hordes of the Under-Empire, the once mighty Dukedom of Mousillon had since begun its decline from the jewel of Bretonnia after a heretical event took place that shook the very foundation of the kingdom to its core.In his noble wisdom, King Louis the Righteous gave permission for warriors of the Empire to cross Bretonnia on their journey to Estalia, for they too had pledged their aid, despite the lack of unification during the Age of Three Emperors.
