Thread: Bretonnian Foot Army

  1. #1

    Default Bretonnian Foot Army

    Can this army fare well in multiplayer environment.

    Idea is to gather multiple buffs for Foot Squires against infantry and Halberds against large targets. Repanse gives constant +9 on attack and +9 defence, Repanse can blind the enemy giving -30 to accuracy combined with -30 from Curse of Anraheim. Encourage + Grail Relique gives Foot Squires a high leadership value of 85 and Immune to Psychology. Power Stone also combines with Wild Heart and Poison Archers give poison debuff even further.

    1 Repanse de Lyonse (All Upgrades)
    1 Beast Shaman (Power Stone + Aura of the Lady + Wild Heart + Wyssans Wildform + Curse of Anraheim + Transformation of Kadon:Manticore)

    1 Grail Relique
    1 Beast Slayers
    4 Foot Squires
    4 Halberdiers
    5 Peasant Bowmen (Poison)
    2 Men at Arms Spearmen
    1 Defenders of the Fleur-de-lis


    FORMATION:

    SSS SSS BBB SSS SSS
    HHH HHH G HHH HHH
    MMM PPP PPP PPP PPP PPP MMM


    So peasants are deployed back, Spearmen protect archers, Halberds and relique form a second line and two of the halberds protect flanks.

    Defenders of the Fleur-de-lis are there because of points, would have wanted Knights Errant instead for anti large role but suppose Defenders would be used to attack enemy ranged units or skirmishers. This army might also struggle against strong lords and heroes. Armies with lots of fast ranged units or skirmishers could also be a problem.

    This army gives 26 points left on large funds settings.


    This army is also built around static abilities so it is not that heavy on micro making it easier to manage, so no cycle charging is required. Need only to position, brace for charge with spearmen or support with halberds, time the abilities to stack and target either flyers, ranged or units in combat with poison arrows. There is only one unit to micro (defenders) with possibility to summon manticore to give terror.
