30 Years War, Imperials with a light cannon


Ulf(Tabletop gamer)posted an article on this blog with the heading "  A funny happned on the way to Breitenfeld - well here is the funny thing....a bunch of Imperials with a light cannon ready to fire straight into the Nordic Horde. The cannon has a five man crew( yes five!). At least  that is stipulated by the upcoming Pikeman's Lament rules(We are currently playtesting them at the club). Five men and rather small gun felt a bit too much, thus I replaced one crewman with some buckets and barrels.

The minatures are conversions based on warlord minatures from the Thirty years war range. The heads have been replaced anda few more details have been added. The gun is of unknown manufacture. I have had it in my bit box for quite some team.

    1. Thank you Russ! Hopefully they will be usefull on the battlefield, though the crew looks like a bunch of people in dire need of social adjustment.
