Description

Black Powder - Napoleonic Wars: Napoleonic Prussian Foot Artillery with 6 or 12 pdr (1813-1815) Summary: 1 unpainted metal miniature for Black Powder. Black Powder is a game for the militarily inclined gentlemen with straight backs, bristling beards and rheumy eyes that have seen a thing or two. If tales of battle and glory in days-gone-by stir nothing in your breast, if the roar of cannon does not quicken the pulse and set fire in the belly, then this is not the rule set for you. Set during the horse & musket period of 1700-1900, Black Powder is very much a game for gentlemen gamers. Gamers who cherish the finer things in life such as wonderfully painted armies, fighting over luxurious terrain, and doing so in the company of friends. No need for the use of protractors to wheel a unit and arguments over whether a charge is 2mm out of range or not are things you’ll no longer have to worry about. In essence it’s a very relaxing game that can produce stunning conflicts – conflicts that can see one side appear doomed only for them to pull victory from the icy grasp of Mistress Defeat. Blast your enemies into submission with this powerful artillery piece for your Prussian Black Powder collection! Famously described as an ‘army with a country attached’, Prussia during the latter period of the Napoleonic Wars was a highly militarised state whose very survival depended on the strength of its army. While not as renowned as the infantry or cavalry, nor as numerous as the Landwehr militia, Prussian artillery was a crucial part of the army, delivering vital fire support to the troops. ‘Foot’ artillery comprised the majority of an army’s guns of sizes from 6-pdrs upwards, and would usually be emplaced in a tactically advantageous position before a battle. From here, massed batteries would rain down devastation on the foe from afar, and if all went to plan, would not need to redeploy during the fighting! An essential part of any Black Powder force, and able to be assembled as either a 6-pdr or heavier 12-pdr, this mighty weapon is ready to take to the tabletop in support of your forces! This pack contains one gun with parts to assemble as a 6-pdr or 9-pdr, with four crew, cast in metal. Unit base is not included. Prussian artillery with 4 crew. Multi-part piece metal figure. 28mm scale. Pack contains one miniature. Miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly. •Manufacturer: Warlord Games •Series/Line: Black Powder •Stock Number: 305001831 •Contents: One (1) miniature •Sculptor: N/A •Scale: 28mm •Material: White metal alloy •Condition: New Thanks for viewing.
