Army Special Rules

This section describes all the different units used in a Bretonnian army, along with any rules necessary to use them in your games of Warhammer. Where a model has a special rule that is explained in the Warhammer rulebook, only the name of that rule is given. If a model has a special rule that is unique to it, that rule is detailed alongside its description. However, there are a number of commonly recurring ‘army special rules’ that apply to several Bretonnian units, and these are detailed here.

Any Cavalry unit with this special rule may deploy in the Lance Formation and/or reform into it during the game. A unit in Lance Formation follow the rules for Ranks that apply to Monstrous Cavalry. In effect, if by any means a unit of Bretonnian Knights is formed into a unit three models wide, it is treated as being in Lance Formation. Note that if a unit is ever wider than three models, it no longer counts as being in Lance Formation. In addition to this, the unit may form a unit up to 5 ranks deep.

A Wizard may be placed in the centre of the second rank of the Lance Formation rather than the front rank, as the Knights form up protectively around her. Note that she remains fully in play even if she is not in the front rank (so the unit may use her Leadership, she may cast magic, etc.). If a second Wizard joins the unit, she may be placed in the centre of the third rank. If the rank in front of the Wizard ever falls below three models, she will move forward to take up the empty space. A Wizard in the second rank still counts as having line of sight for the purpose of casting spells.

On a turn that a unit in Lance Formation makes a successful charge, all models with this special rule gain the Fight in Extra Ranks (1) special rule, and every rider that gets to fight can make up to 3 Supporting Attacks rather than 1. In addition, they add their current Rank Bonus to the Strength of the Impact Hits they inflict. Finally, if the unit wins that round of combat, it also counts as having double their actual Unit Strength for the purpose of determining if the enemy unit is Steadfast or not.

Your Army General must always be a model with the Knight's Vow, the Questing Vow, the Grail Vow, or a Wizard. No common peasant is fit to lead a Bretonnian army into battle!

Models with the Peasant's Duty treat all friendly models with the Knight's Vow, the Questing Vow or the Grail Vow within 6" as having the Inspiring Presence special rule. Unit standards in units with the Peasant’s Duty do not confer any additional victory points if captured.

Models with the Knight's Vow have Immunity (Panic) caused by friendly models. In addition, they may only join units with the Knight's Vow.

Models with the Questing Vow have Immunity (Panic) caused by friendly models, may re-roll failed Psychology tests, and may only join units with The Knight's Vow or Questing Vow. In addition, they ignore Initiative penalties from using great weapons in any turn that they charge, but they may not use any lance (unless specified).

Models with the Grail Vow have Immunity (Psychology) and Magical Attacks special rules, and may only join units with The Knight's VowThe Questing Vow or Grail Vow. Characters with the Grail Vow add +1 to their Leadership.

Models with this special rule have a Ward Save (6+). This is increased to a Ward save (5+) against missile attacks. Models with the The Grail Vow always have a Ward save (5+). Note that the Ward save gained from the Blessing of the Lady cannot be improved beyond 4+ for any reason. Models with the Blessing of the Lady will lose it if they flee for any reason or refuse a challenge.

For generations, the Bretonnian Warhorse has been bred to bear the weight of a fully armoured knight. Bretonnian Warhorses do not suffer any movement penalties for being barded.

So reckless are the Knights Errant that whenever they charge, they have Immunity (Psychology) and may re-roll one of their charge distance dice.

Fangs.

Frenzy, Truffle Madness

A unit with one or more Truffle Hounds must place them in the front rank of the unit along with any command group models and/or characters. They may be attacked separately from any other models in the unit.

If the unit they are with did not themselves declare a charge this turn, the Truffle Hounds may be released in the Charge sub-phase of the Movement Phase, and do not need to test for Berserk Rage. The Truffle Hounds must then declare a charge as if they had failed their Berserk Rage test. After they have been released, they will automatically form their own unit of Skirmishers. From that point, they will keep having to declare charges as if they had failed their Berserk Rage whenever possible for the rest of the game.

Your opponent will only receive Victory Points for Truffle Hounds if the unit they were bought with is destroyed.

Magic Items / Abilities (Louen Leoncoeur): The Lion Lance, Sword of Couronne, Armour of Brilliance, The Lion's Shield, The Crown of Bretonnia, The Tabard of Kings

Lance. Each successful Hit with the Lion Lance is multiplied into 2 Hits. The lance can only be used when charging; in other rounds of combat, Louen will use the Sword of Couronne.

The sword allows Louen to re-roll failed rolls to Hit. In addition, any enemy models in base contact with Louen at the beginning of any Close Combat phase must take an Initiative test. If this is failed, that model may make no attacks this round and will be hit automatically.

Heavy armour. Opponents suffer a -1 penalty to all rolls To Hit the wearer with missile weapons and in close combat.

Shield. The Lion’s Shield gives Louen a Magic Resistance equal to the total number of dice used in the casting of the enemy spell, to a maximum of 3.

Louen’s Inspiring Presence rule has an extra 6" in range. In addition, all friendly units that may use Louen’s Leadership have Immunity (Panic).

Any enemy spell that targets Louen or the unit he is with and is successfully cast inflicts D3 Strength 4 Hits on the Wizard that cast the spell.

Louen gains a Ward Save (4+) from the Blessing of the Lady. However, if he loses the Blessing, he will immediately lose a Wound with no saves allowed.

Hand weapon.

  • May be mounted on Silvaron (25 pts)

Magic Items / Abilities (Fay Enchantress): The Girdle of Gold, Toad Familiar, The Chalice of Potions, Morgiana's Mirror

The Girdle gives the Fay Enchantress a Ward save (4+).

The Toad Familiar adds one dice to both the Power dice and the Dispel dice pool each Magic phase.

At any point during each Bretonnian Magic phase, the Fay Enchantress may peer into the Chalice and stir up magical power to use against her foes. Roll a D6 each time the Chalice is used. The number refers to which spell is automatically cast from the Lore of the Lady as a Bound Spell, at the Power Level equal to the minimum casting value for the spell. This requires no power dice and cannot be increased in any way. However, if a 6 is rolled, the Chalice runs out of power after the spell is cast and cannot be used for the remainder of the battle.

At the start of the enemy Magic phase, the Fay Enchantress may choose one enemy Wizard on the battlefield; against this Wizard, she will get +2 to Dispel for the remainder of this turn.

Favour of the Fay, Supreme Aura of the Lady, Supreme Blessing of the Lady

One friendly character with either the Knight's Vow, Questing Vow or the Grail Vow may be given the Favour of the Fay before the game starts but after deployment is finished. This model receives +1 To Hit in close combat. However, if the model loses the Blessing of the Lady, then both the Favoured model and the Fay Enchantress suffer a Wound with no saves allowed.

The Fay Enchantress has the Magic Resistance (3) and Fear special rules. Against Skaven, Orcs & Goblins and Beastmen, she causes Terror. Furthermore, she gains +2 to cast spells from the Lore of Life or Lore of the Lady.

Such is the power of the Fay Enchantress that the Ward Save gained from the Blessing of the Lady is increased by +1 for any unit that has the Blessing of the Lady and is joined by the Fay Enchantress.

Impale, Magical Attacks

The Dolorous Blade may be used in one of two ways. Either the Green Knight can use the Blade to gain +D6 Attacks, or it can be used to add +2 to his Strength. The Green Knight may change which method he is using to attack with in each Close Combat phase if he wishes to.

Aura of the Fey, Ethereal, Guardian of the Sacred Sites, Terror, Unstable

A being of supernatural power, the Green Knight can never truly be slain. If his Wounds value is ever reduced to zero, he will instantly disappear into thin air. However, in the Remaining Moves part of the following Bretonnian Movement phase, the Bretonnian player may attempt to reawaken the Green Knight as described in Guardian of the Sacred Sites above, following all the same rules. However, each time the Green Knight is slain, a -1 is suffered on the next dice roll made to awaken him (e.g., after he is slain for the first time, he will awaken the following turn on a 4+ rather than a 3+. After the second time, he awakens on a 5+, etc). If he does not appear, a test may be taken during each following Bretonnian Remaining Moves phase to see if he returns. For calculating Victory Points, the enemy only gets full Victory Points for the Green Knight if he is not on the table at the end of the game.

The Green Knight is not deployed with the rest of the army, but follows the entry rules for Ambushers instead, with the following exception that he may appear in the first turn instead of the second.

When the Green Knight is awoken, he must be placed in either a forest or a water terrain piece anywhere on the table, but otherwise follows the rules for Ambushers as normal. If no forest of water feature is present, he may enter from any table edge using the normal rules.

During the game, the Green Knight may disappear at will and reappear in another location completely. If the Green Knight is within (or moves into) a forest or water terrain piece during the Remaining Moves phase, then he may instantly be removed from the table and replaced anywhere on the table within another forest or water terrain piece, facing in any direction. He may not move any further that turn. Note that he still may not end his move within impassable terrain.

At the start of each of your turns, you may declare which song Tristan is singing.

Tristan can only sing one song at once, and will cease singing immediately if he flees or is slain.

  • The Battle-hymn of Quenelles: This song recounts the great victories of Bretonnia, a powerful and driving ballad that can inspire all who hear it to attempt to match the courage and steel of those who came before them.
    While singing this song, Tristan adds +D3 combat resolution to any fight he is in.

  • The Grail Chorale: This slow and measured melody speaks of the most holy Lady of the Lake and her sacred Grail – all who hear this song are filled with faith in the protection of the Lady.
    While he sings this song, the Ward save from the Blessing of the Lady is increased by +1 for the unit accompanying Tristan.

  • The Anthem of the Uniter: A rousing chorus of this song, written in celebration of the kingdom's founder, can steady quavering hearts and put fire into eyes.

Magic Items / Abilities: The Virtuous Lance, Helm of the Dragon Slayer, Claw of Malgrimace, Virtue of Audacity

Lance. This lance gives Jasperre the Strength Bonus (1) and Multiple Wounds (D3) special rules when he charges. When fighting Monsters, once you have established how many wounds have been inflicted, roll a D6 and add the number of wounds caused to the score. If the total is equal to 6 or more the Virtuous Lance has pierced the monster's heart and slain it – remove the model as a casualty. Note that Jasperre must cause at least one Wound for this rule to take effect.

The Helm gives Jasperre a 6+ armour save. Jasperre Ward Save from the Blessing of the Lady is increased to 5+ against close combat attacks. In addition, Jasperre gains the Immunity (Flaming Attacks) special rule.

When fighting Monsters, Jasperre may deduct D3 Attacks from his opponent (not including any rider), to a minimum of 1.

Magic Items / Abilities: Reynard's Boar Spear, Virtue of Audacity

Lance. If Reynard's opponent is wounded by the boar spear, it may not Attack that turn as a result of being transfixed and held at bay by the spear. In addition, no Natural Armour saves may be taken against Wounds caused by the spear.

Blessing of the Lady, Groffe and Griffe, Hunting Party, The Knights Vow, Lance Formation, Reynard's Hawk

Reynard and his wolfhounds always move and fight together as a unit. If Reynard joins a unit, so will Groffe and Griffe (War Beasts).

If Reynard is slain, Groffe and Griffe will run savage and run amok over the battlefield. They will sniff out large beasts and other strong-smelling creatures in a savage rage. They will be subject to the Frenzy special rule for the remainder of the game.

If both his beloved wolfhounds are slain, Reynard immediately becomes subject to Hatred for the remainder of the game.

If Reynard joins a unit of Mounted Yeomen, the unit will follow Reynard's example and become subject to The Knight’s Vow for as long as he remains with it.

The hawk always attacks anyone who engages Reynard in close combat, giving Reynard an extra Strength 3 Attack. In addition, Reynard may use his Hawk in during the Shooting phase. The Hawk can be directed against any enemy unit within line of sight, regardless of range. The enemy unit must take a Weapon Skill test or suffer a Strength 3 Hit.

Virtues of the Chivalric Knight

The history of Bretonnia is replete with tales of honour and glory, and none are more glorious than those of Gilles and his knightly Companions. Together, they freed their land from the depredations of Orcs, Chaos and the Undead before founding the kingdom of Bretonnia. Each of these knights represented the pinnacle of martial achievement and nobility; and throughout Bretonnian history every knight since then has held them up as virtuous examples of all that is best about their code of honour. Each of the Companions of Gilles exemplified a particular virtue of battle and later knights would seek to emulate the virtue of one of these knights in battle.

As a Knight undertakes his vows he takes the first step upon a path of martial and spiritual accomplishment which will lead him into many adventures, and bring him to the threshold of countless perils. As he confronts and overcomes the enemies or chivalry he becomes a more confident and better warrior, he learns skills which enable him to excel in combat, and, even more importantly, he rises ever higher in the ranks of chivalry.

Choosing a Virtue

More than one character can have the same Virtue, but to represent the rarity of this, any character that takes a Virtue another character already has must pay double the points listed below. If a third character takes the same Virtue they must pay triple, and so on.

The Knight has the Heroic Killing Blow special rule.

The Knight (and any unit he has joined) rolls 3D6 for all Leadership tests and discards the highest.

Against enemies with a higher Strength than himself (before modifications from weapons etc), the Knight may re-roll any failed rolls to hit and to wound.

The Knight gains the following bonuses to his profile: +2 Weapon Skill, +1 Initiative, +1 Attack. He may not be the army's General and any friendly unit (including other Knightly characters, or units using a Knight's Leadership) taking any form of Leadership test within 6" of this model suffers a -1 penalty to their Leadership.

The Knight, and any mounted unit he is with, adds +D3" to their charge distance.

The Knight must always issue challenges, and will always accept them if possible. In challenges, the Knight may re-roll all failed rolls to hit and to wound.

For as long as the General is alive, the model with this Virtue adds +1 to the combat resolution of any fight of which he is a part. May not be taken by the General.

For each attack that the Knight hits and wounds with on the charge (after Saves), he may make an additional attack. Extra attacks are not generated if these additional attacks also hit and wound.

The Knight is Stubborn, though he may never join any friendly units.

The Knight may re-roll failed rolls to hit when charging and/or using a lance (including magical lances).

Enemies can never claim the Outnumber bonus against the Knight and any unit he is with.

The Knight hates all enemies using missile weapons including war machine crews. In addition, any unit the Knight has joined never takes Panic tests caused by suffering 25% casualties from Shooting or Magic.

The Knight gains a +1 bonus to their Ward save from the Blessing of the Lady.

If the Knight is not the army's General, models with the Peasant's Duty within 12" of him treat him as having the Inspiring Presence rule. If he is the army’s General, his Inspiring Presence rule is instead increased to 18" for models with the Peasant's Duty. In addition, he may join units with the Peasant's Duty.

Blessed Heirlooms of Bretonnia

This section contains the rules and background for some of the most iconic and powerful magical artefacts used by the Bretonnians. These may be used in addition to the magic items found in the Warhammer rulebook. Bretonnian characters equipped with a normal lance and a magic weapon may use their lance when charging and then use the magic weapon in the second and subsequent turns of a close combat.

Magic Weapons

Lance. If the model has the Blessing of the Lady, then all attacks with the Silver Lance of the Blessed automatically hit. In addition, all successful enemy armour saves and Ward saves must be re-rolled. However, if the model wielding the lance flees for any reason, he suffers D6 Flaming Strength 4 hits with the Ignores Armour Saves special rule.

Against enemies that have Toughness 5 or greater, the bearer gets +2 Strength and the Multiple Wounds (D3) special rule.

Character with the Grail Vow only. The character always counts their Strength as one higher than their target's Toughness, unless their Strength would normally be more than this.

Magic Armour

Heavy armour. The Knight may re-roll 1's when rolling To Hit, To Wound and when making armour saves.

Talismans

Bretonnian Lord only. A model with Sirienne's Locket has Immunity (Killing Blow, Multiple Wounds) and can never suffer more than one wound in any one phase. After the first wound in that phase is suffered, all subsequent wounds suffered during that phase are ignored. The bearer can still be run down by pursuing enemies as normal, and may still be affected as normal by other "instant kill" attacks.

Arcane Items

One use only. When used, the bearer of the Silver Mirror deflects a spell cast at her or the unit she is with back at the enemy caster. The enemy can try to dispel their own spell as normal using any remaining Power dice or Dispel dice. This item has no effect on spells that do not specifically target the bearer or the unit she is with.

At the start of the opponent's Magic phase, the bearer may drink from the Chalice. If she does so, on the roll of a 1 she suffers a wound with no saves allowed, including Ward saves. On a roll of 2-6, an extra Dispel dice is added to the player's pool.

Enchanted Items

One use only. Nominate one enemy model in base contact at the beginning of any Close Combat phase (after challenges). The bearer hits that model on a 2+ for that Close Combat round, regardless of other modifiers.

Magic Standards

As long as the unit is affected by the Blessing of the Lady, all models in a unit with the Banner gain a 4+ Ward save against all missile attacks (including magic missiles). If the Blessing of the Lady is lost, then the Banner loses this ability.

Knight Errant unit only. All Knights Errant in the unit get a +1 Strength bonus on any turn they charge. However, a unit with this banner suffers -2 to its Ld for any Impetuous tests.

Magic Items Expansion

Magic Weapons

Lance. The wielder of the Wyrmlance gains a Strength 3 Breath Weapon with the Flaming Attacks special rule. In addition, all attacks made with the Wyrmlance have the Flaming Attacks special rule.

The Birth-sword of Carcassonne gives +1 Strength to the wielder. Enemies wounded by the sword must re-roll any successful Armour saves.

Lance. The Heartwood Lance allows the bearer to re-roll all failed rolls to wound.

Questing Vow only. The Sword of the Quest may be used as either a hand weapon or a great weapon, decided at the start of each round combat. All attacks made by the Sword of the Quest have the Ignores Armour Saves special rule.

Lance. The Lance of Artois gives the wielder the Killing Blow special rule on turns in which the character charges.

Magic Armour

Heavy armour. Opponents suffer -1 penalty To Hit the wearer of the Armour of the Midsummer Sun with both missile and close combat attacks.

The Gromril Great Helm gives the wearer a 6+ armour save and allows them to re-roll failed armour saves.

Heavy armour and shield (shield must be used at all times). The wearer of the Armour of Agilulf gains Weapon Skill 10.

Grail Vow only. Shield. The wearer gains +1 to the Ward save gained from the Blessing of the Lady.

Shield. Any unengaged unit from Warhammer: Orcs & Goblins within 12" of the model with the Orcbane Shield that must take an Animosity test fails it on a 1-2 instead of a 1.

Grail Vow only. Heavy armour. The wearer of the Gilded Cuirass gains the Regeneration (6+) special rule.

Talismans

The Holy Icon gives the bearer and any unit they are with the Immunity (Psychology) and Magic Resistance (3) special rules.

Questing Vow only. If the bearer of the Insignia of the Quest is ever reduced to 1 Wound, then the Knight instantly gains a Ward Save (3+) as long as they remain at 1 Wound. If the character suffers an attack that would kill him before he has gained this Ward save (such as Killing Blow or Multiple Wounds), he will be reduced to 1 Wound, then may attempt his Ward Save (3+) to stay alive and nullify any further wounds caused by the same hit.

Lord or Paladin only. One use only. The wearer of the Token of the Damsel ignores the first wounding Hit (after saves) suffered during the game.

The wearer of the Mantle of the Damsel Elena gains the Immunity (Killing Blow, Poisoned Attacks) special rule.

Arcane Items

The bearer of Prayer Icon of Quenelles and the unit she is with gain a +1 bonus to the Ward Save from the Blessing of the Lady.

The bearer may use the Sacrament of the Lady at the start of any Bretonnian Magic phase. The model adds 2D3 Power Dice to your power pool, but may not cast any spells herself that turn. Each time the Sacrament are used, roll a dice. On a 1 the model has run out of wafers and after that turn the Sacrament cannot be used for the remainder of the game.

The Verdant Heart gives the bearer a +D3 bonus to the result of their spell casting attempts from the Lore of Life. Roll for each spell casting attempt.

One use only. The Potion Sacre can be used before rolling the dice to cast or dispel a spell. After the dice are rolled, the player may add +1 to the result of one dice. This may cause Ultimate Power or prevent a Miscast.

Enchanted Items

Model on Warhorse only. The Mane of the Purebreed gives +1 Strength to all Warhorses in the unit the model is with.

This magic item will start to take effect at the end of the first phase during which the bearer or his unit suffers an unsaved wound. From that moment on, the bearer and any unit he is with cannot be wounded on better than a 3+ from any non-magical source.

One use only. The Battle Stone may be used at the start of any close combat phase. The bearer (but not any mount) gains +3 Attacks for this round of close combat.

Lord or Paladin only. The model wearing the Antlers of the Great Hunt and any unit they are with roll an additional dice when pursuing and discard the lowest result.

The bearer of the Braid of Bordeleaux and any unit they are with gain the Aquatic special rule.

Magic Standards

The unit carrying the Conqueror's Tapestry gains +1 Combat Resolution Bonus for the remainder of the game for every enemy unit destroyed in close combat or through pursuit.

One use only. The Twilight Banner can be used at the start of any of your Movement phases. For the remainder of the Movement phase, the unit gains the Ethereal special rule.

A unit carrying the Valorous Standard rolls 3D6 for all Leadership tests and discards the highest result.

Enemy units cannot choose Stand & Shoot as a charge reaction against the unit carrying the Banner of Chalons.

Steed of the Lady is an augment spell with a range of 18". The target unit will have Movement 10 and counts as Ethereal for the purposes of movement until the start of the next Bretonnian Magic phase. This spell only has an effect on mounted Knights. The caster can choose to increase the range of this spell to 36". If they do so, the casting value is increased to 8+.

Remains in Play. Mist of Châlons is an augment spell that targets the Wizard and any unit they are with. All enemy missile attacks targeting them suffer a -1 To Hit penalty. The Wizard can choose to extend the range of the spell to target all friendly units within 6". If they do so, the casting value is increased to 12+.

Remains in Play. Doom of Dol is a spell with a range of 24". Name one enemy model to be "doomed" and one friendly character with any Vow within that range to slay him. While the spell is active, the chosen Knight will wound that model on a 2+ with the Ignores Armour Saves special rules. The caster can choose to increase the range of this spell to 48". If they do so, the casting value is increased to 9+.

Remains in Play. Beguilement of Blondel is a hex spell with a range of 24". The target becomes subject to Stupidity.

Spiteful Glance is a direct damage spell with a range of 12" that targets a single model (even a character in a unit). If the spell is successfully cast, the enemy must take an Initiative test in order to avoid being turned into a frog. If it fails, they are transformed and cannot do anything except croak and hop around for the rest of the game. Remove the model as casualty with no saves allowed except Magic Resistance.

The Lady’s Virtue of Valour is an augment spell with a range of 12". Roll a D6; the result rolled is the number of characteristics the target unit may increase by 1, in the following order; WS, I, S, T, A, Ld.
