Chevaliers de Lyonesse Cavalry & Chariots

Grail Guardians

The Fay Enchantress is one of the most revered and respected figures in all of Bretonnia. As is fitting of someone who speaks with the voice of the Lady, she is accompanied at all times by a retinue of Knights who defend her to the death. These men, selected from the very best of the Grail Knights, are warriors par excellence, striking down the enemies of Bretonnia with shining blades of justice. Though rumours abound that the Fay Enchantress is none other than the Lady herself, and therefore requiring no earthly protectors, the Grail Guardians care not and defend their charge all the same.

Attributes

• Perfect Vigour
  Even when performing the most fatiguing actions, this unit never loses vigour.
• Hide (forest)
  This unit can hide in forests until enemy units get too close.
• Immune to Psychology
  The unit is immune to psychological attacks (fear and terror).

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Armoured & Shielded
  Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage. Shields have a chance of blocking arrows, bolts, rifle shots and similar small arms fire - but only in a forward facing arc.
• Living Saints
  Knights who have sipped from the Grail are elevated above mere mortals; they truly are what is best in men.
• Anti-Infantry
  Anti-infantry units have an advantage against targets that are smaller than a horse. This advantage can be a damage bonus against small targets, superior weight used to smash through lighter enemies, or an explosive attack from range that effects a large area.
