The might of Bretonnia’s armies lies in its many ranks of knights. Organised by strict feudal hierarchy, these battle-tempered warriors ride to war upon the finest of chargers – intelligent, fiery and strong animals of heroic proportions – clad in baroque suits of armour overlaid with rich liveries emblazoned with their heraldic devices. The bulk of a Bretonnian army is made up of innumerable feudal peasants. By the standards of other lands, these peasants live a squalid existence, yet they revere their rulers as protectors of the realm and paragons of bravery and honour. Thus, when their lord calls, they eagerly take up arms.
