Filippo's wrap up post

 "I give my body, heart and soul, to the Lady whom I seek. No plea for help shall find me wanting. No obstacle will stand before me. No evil will taint the lands bequeathed unto me. When the clarion call is sounded, I will ride out and fight in the name of Liege and Lady. That which is sacrament, I shall preserve. That which is sublime, I will protect. That which threatens, I will destroy, for my holy wrath will know no bounds. Honour is all. Chivalry is all. Rejoice, for we, the Knights of Bretonnia... will be your shield."

Six month has passed, and from this pile of shame something good has emerged

Even though I didn’t manage to finish all the models I had hoped to complete, in the end I’m very satisfied with the result.

The unit of Squires stayed the same, but over the last month I’ve put together and almost finished a good number of models that I hope to add to the collection soon: about a dozen knights, several heroes, more Men‑at‑arms, and an impossible amount of archers. I even managed to buy Louen Leoncoeur and the General on Pegasus still sealed in the box from some a friend. I’m almost afraid to open them.

The updated list now includes:

1 General of Bretonnia (172 points) 1 Hero (74 points) 1 Sorcerer (56 points) - New Entry! 5 Knights of the Realm (204 points) 5 Errant Knights (176 points) 10 Bowmen (145 points) 10 Squires (124 points) 10 Men‑at‑arms (145 points)

In the last few months we’ve had the chance to dust off and play a lot of 6th edition. The Combat Patrol format has brought in tons of people, both old and new players. I played the Bretonnia list twice, and I even managed to win a game! I was more surprised than my opponent.

(photo shooting by my six‑year‑old son, who wanted to take pictures of the knights because “dad, they’re so cool!, but will you give them to me afterwards?”)

The pile of shame has shamefully grown… who knows what I’ll pull out at Christmas for the next edition.

See you soon, and thanks everyone!
