I think Soizic would like the canonical Duke of Montfort actually. This is his description in page 79 of Knights of the Grail:

I absolutely agree- that sounds exactly like the sort of person a younger Soizic would be half lusting after half wanting to be- in other words a great first crush. Especially with high medieval french romances being *heavily* into the pining for an unobtainable other as the most romantic sort of love.

Would that duke have been in power when Soizic was growing up? IIRC we are still a good few decades before canon times, and Brettonian rulers don't seem to live very long.

That is for the Kings. It entirely depends on the Duke how long they live. Duke Huebald, the Duke of Carcasonne we met in quest, is the same as canon, except younger. Duke Tancred II of Quenlles is the canonical duke in 2522 IC, and he was also the Duke who fought Heinrich Kemmler in 2491 IC in the Battle of La Maisontaal Abbey. He lived so long that he's starting to die of old age in 2522, and he's a Grail Knight, which says something about how long he's lived.

Folcard is actually one of the half of the canonical Dukes that hasn't been mentioned to be a Grail Knight. The other half (or almost half, technically 6 out of 13 Dukes) are Grail Knights.

I'm honestly not sure why. I'd find it a bit tragic, and somewhat out of left field, if one of Ranald's children was a goddess who tries to stamp out his worshippers and is nearly the polar opposite of many of his beliefs; it isn't something that brings humor to mind for me. Would you be willing to explain where the humor comes from?

Dark Humor is like food I guess, not everyone gets it.

And I find it darkly humorous. Your right tho, it is supremely fucked if so.
 
I remember having her family hold be just over the river that the road through the northern pass crosses inside Brettonia? Not sure which dukedom that is either.
Axe Bite for the family home, Montfortian by training after she subbed in for her brother under a distant uncle, at least in my head canon.

And that does work out nicely. :)
If the home is over the River Grismerie, and south of Axe Bite Pass, it's in Quenelles I believe.
 
There's a river tributary running from slightly north of Axe Bite down to the Grismerie which Castle Montfort is built close to that Glau could have meant. It's a thinner stream, but it's a river.
That depends which map you're using. For the Old World map, you're correct, but I tend to primarily refer to the one in the army book, where no such tributary is shown.

I was using the 2E map, which is quite detailed and also often what Boney uses. The website Boney uses for maps (Winds of Chaos » Maps) fits with 2E WFRP better than it does with the Army Book maps. Army Book maps don't always match up to the WFRP maps, which tend to be more detailed. Hell, the fact that Old World uses 2E maps as the base should tell you that even GW prefer 2E's maps over the Army Books.
 
[X] Yes

[X] Panoramia, to talk about how well her project in the Eastern Valley seems to be going.
[X] Julia, to see what she has gotten up to as Stirland's most experienced spy master.
[X] Stirland, to see for yourself how the war against Sylvania is progressing.
[X] The Gold College, to see what's become of their research into Skaven technology.
[X] Pay a visit to your fief, to see if anything has changed. It probably hasn't.

Would be nice if we see can see Julia and our bloody fief sigh.

I didn't even know there was a WFRP map of Bretonnia. Then again that's likely because I despise the way 2e presents the setting and so tend to engage with it only through writers and GMs I already enjoy.

This is the map I'm talking about:
There are zoomed in variants of each Dukedom for each section dedicated to them to provide more details. I use this map for referral.

2E WFRP Knights of the Grail is often an unpleasant read, but it is by far the most thorough look at Bretonnia in all its details than any other book that I've found.

I bet the secular wizards are just looking down on the druids. We already know there are a lot of things teclisian theories can't explain and yet are treated as dogma.
 
I just noticed that the number of tags the quest has have been reduced. The one I notice being lost is Stone is an excellent insulator for BOOK with the umlauts and everything. I'm sure others have gone missing. I assume it was a clean up?

Speaking of, I think the quest can have a little "This is an Elf Quest" as a treat. Considering we're probably gonna be in Laurelorn for a while.

There's a limit on the number of tags so I cull a few every now and then to make room for new ones.
 
@Boney I might be one of the few people who care about this, but I want to know if Durin Wutokri is involved in the preparations to retake Mt.Silverspear. I thought about suggesting a possible social action but I'm not sure if it's too late to check up on him or not. I suppose Mathilde didn't really connect with him as much as she did with Belegar and Ulthar.

He's part of the diaspora of Clan Gunnisson, the Royal Clan of Mount Silverspear. It would take quite a bit to prevent him from being involved. He's probably making bolt throwers for it at this very moment.
 
I would 100% write an omake for that if I was willing to do the research of how woodworking works and how ballistae are made within Warhammer's Dwarf technology level. I don't think they have sanding machines and power saws, and that's the limit of my knowledge of carpentry.

They probably have steam powered saws within the hold.
For smoothening surfaces, i expect they use planes and sandpaper.
 
Adze->chisel->plane is my understanding of how wood was shaped- sand paper was a later invention, after industrial paper production and glues? I think sanding blocks, with just grit glued to wood, might have been a thing?
 
Wikipedia tells me that 13th century china had sandpaper of sorts.
Europe has had it at least since late 17th century.
So both elves and dwarves could easily have the technology to produce a variation of their own.
Assuming they did not use some other methods.
