Prior to battle, it is the custom of all pious servants of the Lady to kneel and pray most fervently for her blessings and protection.
Once deployment is complete, instead of rolling off to determine which player takes the first turn, the Kingdom of Bretonnia army may kneel and pray for the Blessings of the Lady. If it does so, the opposing player counts as having won the roll-off and the Lady’s Blessing is granted, giving all models in the Kingdom of Bretonnia army with this special rule:
• A 6+ Ward save against any wounds suffered.
• A 5+ Ward save against any wounds suffered that were caused by an attack with a Strength of 5 or higher.
Note that if there is no roll-off to determine which player takes the first turn, the Kingdom of Bretonnia army cannot kneel and pray for the Blessing.
Note also that, should two Kingdom of Bretonnia armies face one another, neither may kneel and pray for the Blessings of the Lady.
The Lady will not give her blessings to those that wage internecine wars, and no knight would presume to ask!
Losing The Blessing: Unlike other special rules, the Blessings of the Lady can be lost during a game. Any model or unit that flees, or any character that refuses a challenge, will immediately lose this special rule.
Note that, for the purposes of this special rule, Falling Back in Good Order does not count as fleeing.
