Two types of gun barrels are provided. One type is a 12-pounder field gun (2 pieces provided), and the other type, a 6-pounder howitzer (1 piece provided).

54 PNF 04 Line Foot Artillery (1808)
As above, the set contains 9 model soldiers plus 2 gun models, comprising of 1 officer and 8 gunners. The heads and arms are interchangeable to enable the assembly of different postures. Again, two types of gun barrels are provided: a 12-pounder field gun (2 pieces provided) and a 6-pounder howitzer (1 piece provided).
The howitzer fires an explosive shell and has a high trajectory.
It is especially designed to attack enemy positions that are behind defensive structures that are too thick for round-shots. We have included the queue on these models to allow for them to be used in the earlier battles. (It is much easier to cut what is not needed than to have to do your own conversions)
54 BCF 04 Foot Artillery in Bicorne (1805)

These figures look brilliant. I love the medieval additions. I can.t wait for Scott to start the eighteenth century wars and Renaissance era figures. The evolution of field artillery from the 16th to 17th centuries offers great modelling and wargames potential. Would love to see Landsknechts and Swiss pike men in the future as well as grenadiers with mitre headgear for the 7 years/French and Indian War. The stuff that dreams are made of!
The chainmail soldiers look great. They will match well with Barzso/LOD Medievals and Chintoys. Plenty of options now for Robin Hood, Ivanhoe, Prince Valiant and Crusades set-ups.

Finally, the chainmail knights were wondering what happened to them, will be anticipating their release.

The Artillery models look great! Just need limbers, caissons and horse teams to pull them.
