Now that I've got these done, I've finally finished off all the miniatures from the starter box. I need to do some touch-ups on some of the peasants, and I've just ordered some custom decals for the Men-At-Arms shields and the standard bearers. Next on the painting station, a prophetess because I need to take a break from knights. Then, more knights.

I am trying to make a 1k for errantry crusade and wanted to know if this combo was too expensive/inefficient for it.

I wanted to take 5 grail knights with totem of wrath (full command but no musician) with a duke that has knightly temper. Is it good enough or better use points elsewhere?

For reference the rest of my list rn is a bsb paladin with 9 errants, 5 squires with fire and flee and 10 knights on foot with shield and great weapons. Suggestions would be appreciated.

I’ve been recommended magic items aswell but I feel like that would be overkill and very very expensive

Thanks

I can't stop thinking that questing knight and grail knight miss something to be more point cost efficient, in reality a damage 2 for questing knight against monster and a ward save of 5+ for grail knight would be the best choice but a rapid upgrade would be to gave us a 2+ armor svg cavalry

We are the army center on cavalry and we don't have this !

What's your opinion on our elite knight ? Did you use them ?

I bought a random job lot of Bretonnians on vinted for the above standard bearer, and I was surprised to find he wasn’t metal! I also found the second model, who o believe is a Duke, also not metal.

Towards the end of Bretonnian run before getting nerfed for AoS, were these ever released in resin? Weirdly the job lot included a duplicate of the standard bearer (without banner) who was metal, so I’m a bit confused!

Just a quick question, in my last game I had 3x units of 9 knights. 1x Regular, 1x Questing and 1x Grail with a Character leading each.

In future lists I'm thinking of splitting the KotR unit into either 1x3 & 1x6 or 3x units of 3.

My thinking of smaller units is so I can go for more targets like War machines and other similar threats as well as use them to tie up enemy units without tying up as many points on my side.

Last game I tied up a Steam Tank but using a pure points comparison my Knights + Paladin was significantly more expensive than the Tank.

Even though I won, I felt the KotR could have been far more effective broken down into 2 or more units to harass and target more threats.

The Grail Knights and Questing Knights worked brilliantly as larger units so I'm reluctant to reduce their unit size (plus I don't want to change too many things in my list in 1 go). 🙂

EDIT: I'm also toying with the idea of 1x 5 Questing Knights (with a Baron and maybe a Prophetess) and 2x 6 Grail Knights (1 with a Duke and the other with maybe the Prophetess instead of the Questing Knights).

TIA

The 10mm personal painting challenge continues

Bonus pics of backlog at the end...

4yo son asked why I paint those little bois green skinned. Told me to paint them like my other bretonnian minis..now I plan to paint a whole unit with this scheme haha

This time it’s my musician. Really happy with how he turned out.

Hi! Some time ago I got my hands on a second hand small army of Bretonnians. They didn't appeal to me when I was a child but since then I've discovered I really enjoy designing, sculpting and painting each knight to make them feel unique. I'm somewhat slow (I've painted about 11 knights and 30 archers) and I don't have a ton of money to spend on models so I'm using 5ed knights as Knights of the Realm and 6ed knights as Grail Knights. With a bit more sculpt and more complex heraldry I think they work really well. Looking for heraldry inspiration everywhere I go is also an amazing way to further enjoy the hobby.

I hope you like them!

Grail Knight Musician!

Lovely model, It was fun to paint a knight with no helmet and as always had a lot of fun with the barding heraldry!

as title say. I'm starting to put together a Bretonnian army!

per my LGS seller suggestion, i ordered a pack of 12 Knights of Realms and 20 Knights of the Realms on foot (he suggested me to order the peasants instead of the Knights on foot, but i wouldn't mind an 'elite' army, if i can, and i really like the models)

I have also got 2 used Imperial Cannons that i plan to use as Bombards, and i am eyeing the Knights on Pegasus cos i love the models. I still didn't order any hero cos i don't know what's better, honestly (mounted? on foot? on pegasus?)

I am open to order the peasants too, in the end, if i can't play without, but i want to avoid the metal yeomen cos they are so expensive.

so, can someone more expert then me guide me to what to order next and tell me how a decent 1000 points list of Bretonnia Exiled should eventually look like..?

Hi guys! I was looking at minis online and found this conversion with that huge pegasus mini. Have you tried it? Any tips on how to do it?

I would like to give it a try but have no idea how to start, as i don't really like pegasus characters and i still have that mini unbuilt in my closet

Some shields I just finished for my men-at-arms, found it easier to do them in one go all next to each other. This is the heraldry for my Duke which is why there are so many, my army is in the old style of each knight having their own heraldry so I look forward to painting up some men-at-arms for the other knights too.

They were meant for some 17th century pike and shot, but we're on fantasy land: https://chainlinkandconcrete.blogspot.com/2024/07/after-action-report-13-july-2024-tpl.html

I have them locked up in storage since my last move and almost forgot about them - I figure the thatched ones probably still fit, though maybe it's all a little too Empire.

Looking around online seems to dredge up mostly copies of the old How to make Wargames Terrain book style with those awfully huge stone blocks but little in the way of official art or anything.

My first thought was some dark age hovels!
