as ive never played bretonnians before im not familliar with there army style at all although this feels like cheating i suppose getting tips off everyone im sure matt wont mind as ive not really played his army before so i want to know there strengths and weaknesses if that ok with everyone

all i know about the bretonnians is what ive read in the rulebook and a few rules matts talked about before like the lance formation and damsels are there magic users apart from that i know not very much about them

im using skinks lots and lots of skinks

dont worry its only a skink army Smile

Bait them in and let them kill it then flank and win.

Or charge them first....

I know....epic tactics right?

Pretty much what Swabs said: Throw in some sacrificial units at an angle positioning hard hitting stuff around to engage them in the flank when they overun. Lance formation gives them long flanks so shouldnt be too tricky.
Steadfast/stubborn units would be good as if they dont break you on the charge they are mostly just S3 men with a 1 attack and a good save. Blessing of the lady gives them a 6+ ward save and a 5+ against S5 and higher so low strength but armour penetrating attacks like a salamanders breath weapon would be devasting. Kroxigors for getting through the armour be good too. Beware the trebuche, strength 5 nastiness, take it out quickly. The bowmen can have flaming attacks and defensive spikes which count as a fence in the new rules (I think)
