This doesn't really fit with Bretonnia imo. I mean I get that forts are huge for them and maybe that they should have more of them, but unlike Dwarfs for instance, they shouldn't be so great at digging in behind the walls. I mean they're an agricultural society.

One thing you could try is making peasant level Breton troops animals. That's certainly how the nobles see them anyway.

Hmm. That's a real problem. First, I'll take a look at their castles and see if I can give them castles that have ridiciliously poor supply and defence values. This should make using freespawn for castle protections hard.

That animal thing would look kind of odd, and make the peasants suspectible to animal awe, but it is an option if I can't tune the castles.

Yeah, Grail Damsels are very powerful, mostly for thematic reasons. Grail Maidens are sort of necessary evil you have to recruit for research, they have poor combat paths and are very expensive researchers.

The high lab cost is mostly to make it hard for Breton to get good research going (afterall, they are quite backwards nation).

Hmm, and I just implemented Stavis's typo fixes. Could you please elaborate?
