At that date I think you are looking at the 5th Ed book. If it doesn't have Pegasus Knights in it, there is a later book available. However I wouldn't buy a new brand new copy, as I expect a new version in under 12 months. eBay would be advisable, but I have a copy somewhere you can look borrow. Somewhere big tidy up last weekend, and a few books including one I want to read, are hiding ATM.

The latest Bretonnian book is circa 2001 so it's quite out of date. As Gareth said, hopefully a new book will be released for them in the next 12 months and I really do hope so as this is the army I'd like to play.

I did notice that there is now a trebuchet, all though the book i got stops the Bretonnians having any war engines. I've mainly got an empire army, just needs reassembleing and repainting,but i gues they have changed too!! Would love a look see at the newer army book, thankyou

It may not be sporting, but it us wise. By the way with the changes to guess ranges (you technically still guess, but are allowed to measure to a point before you guess,) Trebs. are amazing. More so than your standard stone thrower, as the Treb. on average hits harder.
