All across the borderlands of Bretonnia, fledgling new lords are pushing the into the untamed wildlands of the surrounding countryside. To the south, the lordlings do battle against Skaven and Orcs in a battle for the foothills of the Irrana Mountains and beyond. The Grey Mountains to the east are filled with Goblins, Beastmen and others, and offer a dangerous, but as of yet unowned, land waiting to be taken by a brave lord. The Great Ocean to the west has dozens of estates dotted along its beaches. The insideous Dark Elves make raids on these pleasant realms, to take away the citizens to a life of horror, toil, and darkness. To the north, the Sea of Claws awaits, with similar dangers as the Great Ocean.
Within Bretonnia itself, small and dangerous realms lay unclaimed, waiting for a brave lord to take them. Some areas near the Massif Orcal and the Forest of Chalons await, and although Orcs are as common as insects therein, it is a rich land. The lands near Mousillon are filled with the dead and the damned, but a couragous lord might still be able to take some of them for his own, and return them to their previous state of glory and honour.
The goal of the players in the "A Lord of Bretonnia" game is, after taking up the role of a lord of a minor border estate of Bretonnia, to build it into a mighty realm, complete with Keep, Men-At-Arms and Knights. However, this will not be easy. He will need to house, feed and defend his subjects. Towns, Mines, Markets, Farms and more will be in his power to build, and with them he must forge a realm worthy of Bretonnia.
The lords in the "A Lord of Bretonnia" game will not be working against each other, instead, each is working towards his own goals. The idea of the game is not to invade realms with huge armies of Bretonnian Knights, as you can do that in a normal game of Warhammer Fantasy Battles, the idea is to explore different aspects of the nation of Bretonnia. Battle does have a part in this game, but it is much smaller in scope because of the resources that each lord has at his disposal.
