The Dukes of Bretonnia

This mod adds 6 lore friendly Legendary Lords to all Bretonnian factions (custom battles and campaign). They require some small task to be completed before becoming available for recruitment. Each has a custom skill tree, textures and textured mounts (barded warhorse, royal pegasus & hippogryph). Balanced around vanilla, no other versions planned yet.

SFO submod: here

I'd really appreciate some feedback on skill trees and balance!

- Gilon d'Aquitaine
Gilon d'Aquitaine is a renowned Grail Knight and the Duke of Aquitaine. He was said to be a great leader and veteran of a dozen campaigns.
- Is immune to magic
- His skill tree contains some buffs when fighting against vampires, reduced attrition from vampire corruption as well as a passive ability, which greatly increases morale and survivability of nearby friendly units.
- Has 2 unique ancillaries: "The Giant Blade" & a royal Pegasus called "Fulminer"

- Tancred II de Quenelles
Tancred II, Duke of Quenelles is a fearless Grail Knight who became a renowned hero and leader, protecting Quenelles from its foes for decades.
- His skill tree grants him and his army different buffs when defending, fighting in own or allied territory and when fighting against greenskins, vampires, skaven and raiding armies.
- Is immune to psychology and grants this attribute to all Knights Errant & Knights of the Realm in his army.
- Has 3 unique ancillaries: "Blessed Draught", "Blade of Couronne" and "The Grail Shield", which reduces defensive capabilities of nearby enemy undead units while making them unable to move.

- Theodoric de Brionne
