Will there be a trail of Combat 1 vs 1 strongest warrior against another (cough mordred) because shouldn't the border princes have chivalry considering there bretonnians? Less casualties if this happens unless their a bunch of cowards and bitches

The dwarven leaders will be really happy about how this went. A few suicidal "trying to die in battle" dwarves will be down on lvl 9, drinking beer and waiting for the war underneath to break through. Also, grumbling that they didn't get there in time for the fight, but also really happy dwarvenkind has regained a littlebit of its former glory. Honestly, that last part is pretty big.
...I have a feeling the dwarves know who they want to win that battle. A few of those dwarven battleragers may be "by chance" on "vacation" in Drachenruche and offer surprisingly cheap mercenary soldier contracts quite soon. And the chance for "oh, we heard you had to use up all your arrows and a lot of other stuff during the battle for Karak Drazh. Here are some replacements!" (A loong queue of wagons with war supplies come in) is significant, depending on if the dwarves think they can get such a caravan through or not. Possibly dropped off by reinforcements passing by on the way to the newly retaken Karak Drazh?
I also suspect the dwarves will take a loong look at what Mordred has expressed an interest in before - mostly improvements to infrastructure and industry. It's the kind of thing the dwarves probably like umgi being interested in improving. The amount of grudges solved during the taking of Karak Drazh were... significant, I suspect.

Tis mega purging time
I'll try, I haven't been able to do a dwarf perspective in a way that feels like a dwarf to satisfy my quality control standards but I might be able to do something as long as I don't do dialogue, the second most foulest spawn of the enemy. Someone else could also try their hand at writing an omake there and I could slap canon status on it if I feel it fits into my own stuff, *hint, hint* *Nudge, nudge*
Ah, yeah. I don't know why but I have this almost instinctive dislike to even think about the bretonnians and quite often have to remind myself they exist and I can't just retcon them out of existence. Though, this is a good idea, I'll steal it and do something with it as I go forward.

Bretonnia isn't really as bad as others and even the game makes it out to be.

The strangely fun thing about any warhammer universe is that nobody is the good guy, everyone is evil on some level. So, you can hate or like any and all factions without feeling guilty or going through huge amounts of justification.
If I was a fan of the empire(star wars) I would have to give valid reasons why. In warhammer, I can go full chaos fan boy and be just valid as anyone else in said fandom, no questions asked.
That being said, bretonians are whiny little bitches.

As I said, I'm not entirely sure why I dislike them so much, I just get this mental disdain for them every time I think about doing more with them. The most I've done is make Mud Mound a primarily Bretonnian settlement and that doesn't really say good things about the way I consider them. The closest thing I can think of why I dislike them so much is because they use so much cavalry in Total War Warhammer 2 and I hate using cavalry in total war games so I just consider them unplayable. But that feels so petty for why I feel such disdain for them so I wonder if that's really why I don't care for them.
I think I've been twisted a bit by reading so much warhammer fanfics since my first reaction to that is the warhammer fantasy empire isn't evil but then I think a bit more and realize that I'm hilariously wrong about that considering what they tend to do, although they are much better than 40k IoM. Also the dwarfs are probably the least evil in warhammer fantasy, they have their vengeance quirks and oath heavy culture but at least they don't burn their own kin alive for the enjoyment of it or worse.

All these factions are downright adorable compared to their 40k equivalents tbh. But Bretonnians man… Like how does their society even function? Or even operate on a similar level to the Empire?
It probably shouldn't. And that's why I dislike it, and possibly a part of why they seem so unpopular. Bretonnians are essentially the equivalent of a dark age or feudal age throw back to the early middle ages, in a world where the other human nations are late medieval or renaissance equivalent in terms of technology and culture. There'd be no problem if everyone were still at that level, but they're not. Tilea is like renaissance Italy and the Empire is more similar to the later generations of the Holy Roman Empire than the earlier ones. And that's just for human nations. Once you throw in the Elves, Dwarves, Skaven, etc, then there really is no way the Bretonnians should still be a major power. They should be like the border princes at best, a land of petty warlords with little unity and likely have lost large portions of their territories to there neighbors. But no, someone wanted to play at being king Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table in Warhammer, so there you go.
Oh, hey. Here's a good idea for a in character reason why Medred would dislike bretonnia. it's basically a mockery of an important part of her life. Now if only I could figure why I do in RL that would be great.
Hmm... Well, there could be many other reasons to dislike them. Maybe you're having a hard time identifying it because it's not any one thing but a legion of smaler traits adding up?

You say that in a world where things exist to laugh at bullets and early munitions. And they have a goddess that literally empowers them with blessings and Space Marine lites to go with it.

If I had to guess why bretonnia is so hated it's probably how they basically are the worst bits of noble culture playing dress-up as honorable Knights, so they sorta just come across as foppish entitled blowhard hypocritical vain glory-chasing selfish man-children with an oversized vocabulary, oh, also if you removed them from the setting you lose basically nothing noticeable lore wise.
Yes. Things exist that laugh at early bullets. But guess what? There is far more to later society's technology and infrastructure and social structure than bullets! Is the Brettonian military outdated? Yes, and the Lady of the lake does offset that somewhat, as you mention. But it isn't even their military that is the main point. Their entire culture is outdated for the world in which they live. Their entire country should not be able to exist in that world, because it is impossible for them to keep up with everyone else, not necessarily just in war, but at Life in general. That was my point. A society stuck in the dark age is inferior at every level to more advanced ones and should not persist against societies that are socially and technically more advanced, which almost everyone else is. The major competition they have that isn't more advanced than them are the greenskins and beastmen and maybe certain vampires. That is not a flattering placement. "We may be a primitive backwater, but at least we're not as bad as the orcs!"

Probably debating between worshipping her as a new goddess, or arguing that she's secretly a dwarves god pretending to be human, lol.
Wait I didn't see it chapters wtf are you high on?
Well, there were these comments below and it wasn't actually confirmed but yes, there wasn't a lot of talk about my totally ingenious idea to completely sidestep the whole husband problem and still give Mordred some kids.

Nope, Remember how the Unicron reacted to that one guy after the party, and Unicron's are said to know if one is pure or not. Well, that tells me not only she's pregnant but also who the dad is.
I didn't go to the next page, I looked at what was on the page the chapter was on. Good to know others noticed as well.

It was actually more because Anders Stark had sex with her, rather than Mordred being pregnant, I'm headcanoning that it takes 3-5 weeks to cross the distance between Drachenruhe and Karak Druzh and the party was a day before they left/got kicked out which means Mordred is only going to actually notice her kids when she either uses her Mana Boost(because mana boost is just shoving a bunch of mana into her body and thus she would realize her body is different from normal) or her symptoms express themselves enough for her dense head to notice. Bob was giving Ida Weinstein weird looks as well since he wasn't sure how to handle two girls getting it on together.
