Giant Bash Tournament - Adventure's Guild in Harrisburg PA

This last weekend I participated in a three game tournament with my Bretonnian army. The event was hosted by the Hell's Crucible Club at the Adventure's Guild in Harrisburg Pennsylvania.

The tournament had a very heavy giant them to it, I believe because one of the TO's is a very tall man.

My Army List:

Bret Lord - Armor of Agilulf, Virtue of Audacity, Grail Vow, Sword of Lady's Champion

Prophetess - Lvl 4 Lore of Life, Dispel Scroll

BSB - Enchanted Shield, Dawn Stone

12 KotR - Full Command

9 KotR - Full Command, War banner

12 KE - Full Command, Errantry Banner

50 M@A - Full Command

2x 16 Bowmen - Musician, Brazier

3 Peg Knights

8 Grail Knights - Full Command, Banner of Swiftness


Some quick notes about the list:

•  I know I have no trebs. I traditional don't take them.
•  I was torn between Life and Beasts up to the day of the tourney, and am still wondering if I should have used beasts.
