So English people would be as proud as French people? This is
outrageous, I thought we had the monopoly of pride!!!!! ;o)
More seriously, GW can forget this to make a "new" Fantasy Battle
army, the Bretonian army. English troopers + French knights and a lot
of borrowing in the two countries history or legends (Arthur, Jeanne
d'Arc...). It was very funny to read the Bretonian background in
order to find what has been "stolen" (very long list) and what has
been imagined (I'm still looking for...).
