ar has been thrust upon the lands of King Louen Leoncouer once again, and will have to be met in kind.

Hordes of lowly Goblins are pouring into Bretonnia through the Grey Mountain passes, as if fleeing a larger conflict further east. The valour of Bretonnia's knights prevented many of the realm's vulnerable border towns and villages from being overwhelmed and hundreds — perhaps even thousands — of the diminutive, wicked greenskins have been slain.

Many a bold knight has made a name for himself in recent days and, while this affirmation of chivalric principles warmed King Louen Leoncouer's heart, it presented him with a problem. In Bretonnia, tradition dictates that valour upon the field of battle be rewarded with land. However, so successful have his knights proved that Leoncouer has run short of land to award.

So it is that King Louen has issued a decree. It is clear, he has said, that the Empire is beset, and that Bretonnia must rise to defend her cousin. An Errantry War has been declared, its aim to purge the Empire of all threats. Furthermore, knights with the rank of Baron or higher are permitted to extend the protection of the crown to any Empire township that wishes greater protection from the strife besetting them and a more stable form of governance than that offered by the Emperor Karl Franz.

Within a day of the decree, the first Bretonnian armies marched for the Empire, heraldry bright in the sunshine. Knights from every corner of the realm had responded to the king's declaration. Amid the column of armies, the blues and whites of Quenelles jostled with the yellow of Montfort, gold of Bastonne and the red of Gisoreux. Pegasus Knights have come from Parravon, Grail Knights from Châlons — even a few Questing Knights had set aside their travails and joined the cause. All around flowed the sea of peasants, retainers, yeoman and squires that gather in the wake of any knightly crusade.

The knightly sons of Bretonnia ride to war once more, in pursuit of honour, glory and land!

Objective - The sons of Bretonnia ride in pursuit of honour, glory, and land. They proudly answer the call to repel the creatures of darkness from the lands of their neighbours. Every Bretonnian victory represents a great deed done, honour earned, and perhaps even a new duchy established across the mountains.
