MAGIC ITEMS:
Falcon-horn of Fredemund (Enchanted Item)
Roland carries a huge warhorn carved from the tusk of
a monster slain by his remote ancestor in the Dark Age
of Bretonnia. This ancient horn was used by the Grail
Companion, Duke Fredemund of Aquitaine. When
blown, this horn emits a piercing cry and releases a
mighty spell, and the skies become filled with all
manner of birds, in memory of the great man. It drives
driving away flying creatures as if scared by an
awesome predator bigger and more ravenous than
themselves!

One use only. The Horn may be sounded at the start of

any Bretonnian turn. Until the start of the next
Bretonnian turn, no enemy unit may use the Fly special
