Hey guys I just had a great game last night against a brettonian player, both my first game against brets and his first against lizards. I had a ton of fun playing him, but I came away with a few questions that i couldn't answer at the time b/c he had forgotten his army book. I was hoping one of you knowledgeable sages could help point me in the right direction.
First, the rules questions. Brettonian characters can take virtues which they can take multiples of (across different knightly characters) Now the really important thing (what we had a disagreement over) was whether these virtues use up points from the characters magic item limit. The guy i was playing insisted they didn't, that virtues were something completely separate, while army builder insisted that virtues took points from the magic item limit. Again, we couldn't verify b/c he forgot his army book. Which one of these is correct? The guy had a really awesome paladin with armor that gave him weapon skill 10 and talisman that made any duel the character proposed mandatory. Along with this, he had a virtue that allowed rerolls to hit and wound whenever the character was in a challenge. He squished my mounted scar-vet in a challenge, only to be run down moments later by a unit of vengeful kroxigor, so I wasn't too upset ^_^. But for future reference, it would be a great help if someone could clear this up.
Next, this is just out of curiosity... in the fiction of the Warhammer universe, have the lizardmen and bretonnians ever come into contact with each other at all? Looking through the army book, it looks like brets are like the ONLY race lizardmen haven't beaten into poo at somepoint for invading thier jungles. Anywho, I was just curious for fluffy reasons. It does seem a bit far fetched for the lizards to be fighting brets... I can't really see them getting into brettonia and I really can't think of a reason brets would mount an expidition to lustria. Brets seem almost xenophobic to be honest. Anyway, help on either point is appreciated, thanks in advance!
