This does have my consent, even tough you missed the Glorious empire by a few centimeters on the map.
So knights do quests so they can drink the bath Water of their Godess.
Good work on mentioning the growing "middle class" of Bretonnia. It paints a much more complex picture of the dark fantasy setting of Warhammer Fantasy. I don't like it when the fans treat it as a pure grimdark setting.
Bretonnia is a fun mix of High Middle Ages France, Arthurian England and the plains of Hungary(to hold all the horses). Also the bretonnian fleet is 17th century based.
Lady of the Lake: I'm giving my bath water for all you thirsty knights
Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government…
Games Workshop: Hey, y'know what would be a brilliant idea? Lets take King Arthur, King of the Britains and a cornerstone of British mythology and culture and make him
So since Brettonia basically fantasy France could they ever have a fantasy revolution? Viva la Commune?
"Jou what? Want our 'elp in finding la grail? Non non we already got one!
Imagine not fighting for Sigmar, Karl Franz and the Empire
"Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!"
Bretonnia: England and France's lovechild or Western Europe in general
"Life in Bretonnia is great!" - gab-toothed peasant, with his Lord standing next to him, sword at his throat.
Talking about the Code of Chivalry: Hell yeah, feudal knights!
And then they all died.
I always had a problem with bretonnia's 90% tax, and how peasants are all inbred, etc. Because it's like someone took a passing glance of how feudalism worked and decided it wasn't grimdark enough, so they made Bretonnia an impossible society, I can understand wanting to make bretonnia darker, but surely there is a better way than making them a society that would crumble under its own incompetence?
"Honor Before Glory!"
“By the will of the Lady of the Lake, beneficent deity of all Bretonnia, by lance and by sword, are the lands of the King kept safe from Greenskins and the mutant Beastmen of the darkling forests, from malicious Daemons and the walking dead.....”

I actually had a mind cannon after finding out the truth of the Lady during the End Times story line. The short version is that lords and ladies are almost worshiped by the peasants they lead. This worship empowers them, and higher nobles are in turn empowered even further by the fealty of the lesser nobles beneath them. The King and Queen are there for the most powerful people in the Kingdom, both personally and politically. The Lady is the culmination of every past Queen, and the Green Knight is the culmination of every past King. Because the Kings and Queens are about demigods the combination of their souls, not to mention the reverence and worship of an entire nation, has elevated these gestalt entities to true godhood.
