The knights of Bretonnia take the field under the Penitent leadership of Duke Le Tucker.
Using his Trailblazer's Hauberk, he was able to infiltrate closer to the enemy than most rational Grail Knights dare to go.
Accompanied by two dozen loyal squires, pledged to defend the Duke at all costs, he stood ready to fight the greenie hoard.
Bretonnians Pray as Le Tucker recites the grail oath aloud at the gaming table.
"I give my body, heart and soul, to the Lady whom I seek.No plea for help shall find me wanting.
No obstacle will stand before me.No evil will taint the lands bequeathed unto me.
That which is sacrosanct I shall preserve. That which is sublime I will protect.
That which threatens, I will destroy, for my holy wrath will know no bounds."
Orc'Neal gets annoyed. "This ain't Dnd"
