Fields of Honour

Nothing is more important to a Bretonnian knight that honour and and chivalry. Throughout the Bretonnian landscape are sites of famous battles in which the pride of Bretonnian knighthood has excelled and performed heroic feats on the Fields of Honour. Sometimes, a local feudal lord will decree that such fields be left alone as memorials to those knights who fell in battle. No structure, other than the occasional monument to the fallen and the Lady of the Lake may be built, and no crops may be planted on the fields of honour. Visitors are expected to move through the area with a sense of quiet awe and respect.

Undead forces look upon fields of honour as sources of raw materials from which to fashion new soldiers to bolster their ranks, inevitably leading to battles against their Bretonnian defenders. In turn, Bretonnians approach these battlefields with respect and awe, and will fight fiercely to live up to the heroic examples set by their ancestors. The armies of Bretonnia always stop to pray for the Blessing of the Lady, as they would never do battle on a field of honour without the countenance of the Lady of the Lake.
