I can't think of any reason that a big base would benefit me (in fact it's a lot worse)

I think it's common practise to measure to the model, as most don't have bases anyway

5 Errants are so much better than 5 Yeomen... Its about 30 points more and you get a 2+save, which means your redirectors aren't killed by whatever light shooting your opponent has.

Also 1 Treb is pretty much useless... but they are such lovely models.
There is no problem in life that can't be solved with Heroic Killing Blow:
Plague Furnace, Abomination, Hydra, Wyvern, Arachnarok, Engine of the Gods, Zombie Dragon, Vargulf, Hellcannon. To be continued...

If we assume that there are infinite universes, then in at least one of them, I'm banging Emma Watson. Awesome!

I know I've never played brets before so you are a lot better qualified to talk about it, but, the yeoman have go be better don't they!? As fast cav they can hide behind my lances in a single file line so they are -2 to shoot them... Then at redirect time the fast cav abuse makes it so easy to put them where you need them. I can only see the errants being bum, especially if they have to charge what they are meant to be standing in front of!! :)

Anyway at a crappy wedding today so no update... :(

I f*cking hate weddings!!!

Well, don't let me stop you from trying them out, I just thought they were naff, but some Brett players love them.  The other big issue with Yeomen is the expensive crappy metal models, and I couldn't be arsed converting them so I possibly didn't give them the chance to prove themselves

The leadership issue is pretty moot with a LD9/10 general and BSB in range. So I think it comes down to:

Yeomen: Very maneuverable and fast. light armour. Can't fight in combat, but can get to Warmachines
Errants: Not so maneuverable but won't die to light shooting. Viable option for support/flank charging

Good point guys, we need photos of the Bridesmaids, now! Are they Pippa-esc quality?
