OK, boots all tidied up. I've commissioned a "greater" cannon along with two additional crew for it (loader and aimer). Once that's done they'll both be on their way to me so I can get casting prices before starting the KS.

They look good - especially when all arranged around the gun.

As a bonus you can arrange the crew for pugil stick fights!

Getting there. I also asked for a different light cannon barrel that looks more "galloper-y".

Like the new more gallopery barrel.

And the big gun, is suitably big!

Looking good.

Both are really really nice. I think everybody will be satisfied with this set.

Really like the models , they are great .

Could i have a choice of not solid wheels on the carriage please as these in my humble opinion look odd , and out of place . I do like spoked wheel for the cannon .

Kind regards

Stuart

The plan at this point is to include enough wheels of each type so you can put whatever you like on them. We'll have to see how that works out price-wise though.

I'm finalizing the pack contents with my caster. I don't believe I'm going to be able to offer wheel options given their cost. As of right now the cannon unit will contain:

* 6 crew on foot
* 2 cannon (left), 2 carriage, 4 reinforced wheels

And the horse-mobile cannon unit will contain:

* 4 crew on foot, 2 with/on horse
* 2 cannon (top right), 2 carriage, 2 limber, 8 spoked wheels

And now a bonus light cannon unit:
* 6 crew on foot
* 2 cannon (middle right), 2 cannon (bottom right), 2 carriage, 4 reinforced wheels

That work for people? I'm still planning on having stretch goals for the mortar and organ gun, I also might do a Heckblaster.
