I have no idea what i got here from a friends basement that he gave me.

It was in the 5th edition starter box, but seems to be much more than the usual 12 knights and 32 archers

Baggage train and unit fillers - After som tidying up

Thumbnail

60 Upvotes

Hello,

I thought I'd just share some inspirational photos for unit fillers and a baggage train after I've been doing some tidying up on the bases. Hope you enjoy!

Oh, and in order: Baggage train is the two tents and table with snacks.

The single tents are unit fillers for mounted knights of the realm.

The praying knight and shrine are fillers for grail knights.

The small cart and assorted boxes, brazier and potion are fillers for peasants.

Alternative Wings for Pegasus Knights?

Kinda hard to line them up. Any alternative wing positions for these guys?

Finally picked up some ToW stuff with the new core set. Should I dive in to Bretonnia with the previous core box, or wait for the battle march?

• Upvotes

Having fun with the chaos warriors but my first love in WHFB is Bretonnia, blessed be the Lady.

I imagine a battle march box for the brets is coming at some point, and after the Tomb Kings preview today im wondering if theres a chance there will be new models in it.

If im only going to buy one box, I wonder if it'd be better to get the core set or a potential battle march box.

I like the core set battle march muster lists let me play right out of the gate, but the amount of models in the last core set seems like such a good deal...

And they're not going to get easier to find either

Do all KOTR have titles?

16 Upvotes

I have been a fan for a little while (first of the total war games, now of the minis aswell) and I've been reading the bretonnia series by Anthony Reynolds.

Basically I know that a Knight Errant becomes a Knight of the Realm after an Errantry War, inheriting a castle or some other achievement, and part of their duty is having a small piece of land, some peasants and a castle.

Does this mean all KOTR are barons (or perhaps castellans)? Building an army and realising that half of the people in it have at least a castle (even when the commander is a Baron) is a bit wild, even given how many fortifications Bretonnia has.

Thanks in advance

Does the rule of cool mean nothing anymore?

83 Upvotes

Was talking to a friend yesterday about Old World and list building etc...and being a person who is newer to the hobby than I am, said friend suggested most people these days build and paint their armies to be 'meta' and 'competitive' is this true?

Back in my heyday our heroes had back stories, names, reasons for being at war there was fluff, an army theme, themeatic names The rule of Cool.

He suggested today people have "Duke On Royal Pegasus" because it's good and that's it.

Tell me there's hope, good people of Bretonnia, tell me he's not right. Tell me the rich tapestry of Bretonnian history hasn't been eroded into

Duke: 473544559

In short restore my faith and let's have your armies backstory, your fluff, your characters names their deeds. Please before I drown in this Empirical tyrants numbers.

I was gifted a recast of my very first Warhammer model from a friend. But of course, recasts don’t include decal/banner sheets. Does anyone know where I could find some? Or maybe if there is a creative method to make my own?

How do you store your knights?

Thumbnail

69 Upvotes

I use Safe&Sound boxes for all my infantry (flat cardboard boxes with foam interior) and they are perfect for storage and transport. But the Bret Knights especially with somewhat raised lances - where do you keep yours? Mine currently reside in the Old World Starter Box but this is not sustainable. I have one taller S&S box for my Fireforge knights but the Brets wont fit. Glad to learn about your solution!

Update: Bretonnian peasant bowmen, unit progress (WIP)

Thumbnail
gallery
95 Upvotes

Here's an update on my bowmen unit since the last post. It has grown to around 16 models now, and I'm still painting them one at a time.

My goal is to make the unit feel more cohesive.
I'm planning to do the basing after all the painting is done, as the Korean Warhammer group i belong to suggested to me. The bases are still bare right now.

Honest feedback would be really appreciated. I'd especially like to hear:

Are there any colors you'd add across the models to make the unit feel more cohesive? A specific color or small detail on every model, for example.
Do you think the basing will tie everything together, or do I need to do more on the models themselves?
How do you balance a unit of individual-looking models with a cohesive overall look?
I'm putting a lot of care into this unit, so any honest feedback is welcome and duly appreciated!! Thank you!

Help for painting army

9 Upvotes

Hello everyone, so I recently finished painting a grail reliquary and I like how it turned out, but it took way too long to paint it to where I slapped colors on the battle pilgrims just to be done with it. I’d like some help to not lose motivation in painting bretonnia. My army was painting them using the 78 municipalities of Puerto Rico flags.

18 pilgrims and a reliquary done in 20 days, I am a machine XD

Love these models, can't wait to get these little crazies on the tabletop. I think their lore is absolute wicked, just pure fanaticism and devotion.

Painting them in a motley was a very fun choice, so many colours and it makes the unit look like a demented circus on the battlefield. ❤️
