In your name!


It' s been a long time since I played a battle. My entire free time is currently devoted to painting my new Vampire Counts army. I've almost forgotten how much fun it is to play WFB. Thus, my Bretonnia confronted an army of Hordes of Chaos, who invaded the lands inhabited by followers devoted to the Lady of the Lake.


Warhammer | Bretonnia | Hordes of Chaos | Slave to Darkness | Pitched Battle | Tzeentch

The battle was played on 2400 pts with the possibility of taking Special Characters. We played on 6th ed. with the addition of home rules. (link to the rules)

During the Deployment Phase I drew the side with the hill where Field Trebuchet was placed, guarded by a Pegasus Knights and Grail Knights units. The Winds of Magic were on the Bretonnian side that day. My 2x Damsel of the Lady wielding Life Magic drew offensive spells: Master of Stone, Master of the Wood and Father of the Thorn, which helped the Bretonnian forces a lot.


I couldn`t afford not to play Tristan the Troubadour and Jules the Jester. Naturally, Sir Tristan joined his brothers in arms - the unit of Questing Knights.

Jules the Jester, on the other hand, was kept on the sidelines due to his unfortunate incident at the Battle of Castle Reunart, where Sir Laudyricus of Couronne was unhorsed and nearly impaled on a hobby horse.


Lord Berengier the Hawkfriend landed at the back of the Man-at-Arms unit raising their morale as a general and making sure they would fight bravely against the Chaos forces.

On the other hand, Tristan warms up before singing his Valourous Ballads, which in 3 ways can aid in battles, such as giving +1 combat resolution point to a fight he is in, as well as bestowing Magic Resistance (2) or providing Stubborn for the whole unit.

Sadly, I misjudged the distance and exposed myself to the charge of the Chaos Knights, who with St5 sowed death among the infantry ranks.

Despite the unexpected charge of the slow Beast of Nurgle, who threw a surprising double six for his Special move, the Knights of the Realm passed the Fear test and bravely faced the Chaos creature.

Not playing often resulted in the fact that this was not the only situation of misjudged distance.

Not playing often resulted in the fact that this was not the only situation of misjudged distance. The same thing happened with Dragon Ogres, who impetuously charged the Questing Knights unit. Fortunately, the Lady of the Lake saved one of them from death. In response, the knights inflicted 3 wounds and won that fight, while forcing the Dragon Ogres to flee.


The overconfident Chaos hero underestimated the Bretonnian lord`s skills. Consequently, the follower of Chaos lost his life.

They rallied in the next turn to attack the Daemons of Khorne with full impact. Unfortunately, they were eventually tired of fighting and were killed, and Sir Tristan was the only one to escape the battlefield to write a song about it.


The machine`s crew bravely defended against the attacks of the last daemons on the battlefield.
