Bretonnian Grail Reliquae

[robur]

Hi!
I was planning to use some models in SBH from GW's Brtonnia, and in particular the Grail Reliquae, but I don't know wich rules and profile I can use to represent it. Any suggestion?

if it's the Grail, you find more than a hint of that in Song of Arthur and Merlin. Sorry not familiar with warhammer stuff so I don't know what these are supposed to do in game terms. Zombie romanized britons?

[robur]

No no, just some pilgrims carring the relic of a dead paladin. Grail is not necessary, it's only GW stuff.

from your description, they sound some simple Q3 C3 Steadfast humans with the relic being used as a Standard Bearer

But, in your opinion, can be considered big or mounted? It also should boost morale in the band.

I would go with what Andrea said about the 6 foot models. As for the icon bearers or whatever you would like to call them, they could simply be a regular human with the Standard Bearer rule. For the "morale boost" you could make it a leader. I personally would not make it big or mounted, but if the people you play with agree that it would be a big or mounted model, feel free.

Is the relic alive (undead) or not? If he is and can strike, he should have some elevation bonus from the length of the lance and the height so it could be justified treating him as a single figure, giving him/them Mounted and Short move (I bet moving is difficult in that situation). Another option is to make him a leader and have the group be activated as a group move.
When we do rules for warmachines etc this situation could be described by a special rule ("Palanquin" maybe), I was not even aware that such a model existed.

In the original background the relic is just a dead skeletron, not an undead, but I can do different; in other words I just want to use the model because I like it.
