Charge and cycle
Grail Knights do their damage on the charge. Hit an engaged enemy in the flank or rear, then pull out and charge again instead of staying in a long melee.
Avoid braced spears and halberds head-on. Let Peasant Bowmen and infantry hold the enemy in place first, then bring the knights in from a direction the enemy cannot cover.
A top-tier knight
Grail Knights are among the last units Bretonnia unlocks. Expect to develop the race's advanced knightly buildings before they appear.
Knights of the Realm and Questing Knights are separate entries. Each fills a different place in the cavalry progression.
Peasants and nobles
Bretonnia balances peasant infantry and archers against noble cavalry. Grail Knights are the hammer of that army, with the peasants holding the anvil.
Louen Leoncoeur, Alberic, the Fay Enchantress and Repanse de Lyonesse lead Bretonnian campaigns that share the knightly roster.
