Oh the previous pope is dead and is covered in candles and sits on the other side of the pope's chair. I thought it looked like flames. I thought it was gonna be a dual kit where you can either build it as a live pope or a burning undead pope for some reason, which was a hell of a lot cooler, even though this is extremely cool.

They died on the way back to their home planet. All of those models are making me absolutely consider selling my deepkin, these look the absolute bomb. The Deleter fucked around with this message at 10:01 on Aug 4, 2023 |

Cool models, but why does the cannon have what looks like a spare barrel sitting upright on the base? Do the designers think it needs changing like a modern machine gun?

Apparently most of these weird little guys are one box, possibly all the same unit of aides for your general. Love the idea of your general having a retinue of weird little guys.

Genghis Cohen posted:Cool models, but why does the cannon have what looks like a spare barrel sitting upright on the base? Do the designers think it needs changing like a modern machine gun? The cannon frame has a crane attached to it, and the middle portion of the cannon has a hook for the crane to attach to. It looks like the design is that the loader adds the ammunition to the barrel portion that is on the ground, then they use the crane to unload the empty barrel and load the charged barrel onto the cannon, as opposed to the cannon having some sort of breech system or being loaded in the traditional way. I suspect this is because it wouldn't make a lot of sense to have the loader and sponger go in front of the bulwark.

This guy wasn't part of the leak, was he? looks a lot better than the regular cavaliers also, if the retinue is one box I may have to get it, they're my favorite of the bunch

Nope, he wasn't in that case. So I figure they were just sweetening the deal a little.

What cannon illustration do you have in mind in regards to this? Like an early bombard like the Dardanelles gun or Orban cannon? Edit to say, it looks like the cannon continues on into the wooden structure , but maybe that is not the case. IT is a bit hard to see.

Like an early bombard like the Dardanelles gun or Orban cannon? this specifically  grabbed it from here; https://www.mdpi.com/2571-9408/6/2/58 but I'm sure i've seen it or a nearly identical drawing in a book previously. anyway, you can also find similar designs of Veuglaire if you look around. GW have cobbled it together from a few styles but whoever it was does appear to have done some research... though like I said still missed something important, the second breech on the base of the model doesn't have a lip to socket into the barrel, so I wouldn't want to be standing near this thing when fired:

Thank gently caress they're on normal-rear end horses. I've been waiting years for this refresh and was worried they'd put all the cavalry on lizards or something.

Apparently this primitive guns on freeguild fusiliers can fire 2 shots at 24 range so who ever designed them is some kind blackpowder genius who hates product design
