Revolt Against The Sun King


The grim memory of the Sun King is still with many of Bretonnia's peasantfolk. Tales of him are told to the young so they will beware of any king like him, as he was a decadent and uncaring king, who brought misery and destruction to the lands of Bretonnia. He eventually died and his noble son gained power, but the land of Bretonnia still has some decadent and worthless nobles, but luckily the valient Knights make sure they don't mistreat their people.

This campaign is set in the time of the Sun King, with only one Bretonnian army needed until the last scenario. The Sun King's real name was Charles de la Tete d'Or III.

This scenario requires two players and at least 1,000 points worth of Bretonnian troops. If you already have a Bretonnian army this campaign would be good to introduce a new player who can't decide on his army to Bretonnia so he/she can see if he/she likes it.

One player plays the Sun King, while the other play takes up the role of the Revolutionaries. In the Warhammer World, a revolt never happened that was big enough to overthrow the decadent Sun King, but this is a "what if?" campaign.
