Description
There were few battles that did not feature artillery of some kind, and any
General would have been very happy to have the support of medium or light
guns. The guns were on the whole bravely and well served by both sides,
inflicting losses at long range with bounding iron cannon balls, and using case
shot - a tin of tightly-packed musket balls - at close range.
This box can be assembled and painted to represent Continental gunners,
including the famous &apostrophe;Molly Pitcher&apostrophe; (below), or their opposite numbers, the
Royal Artillery.
Contains the following plastic figures:
2 cannon. Can be built as either 3-pdr or 6-pdr cannon and with
British Royal Artillery Crew or Continental Army gunners
1 &apostrophe;Molly Pitcher&apostrophe; figure
2 mounted army commanders with option of 6 heads representing
some of the most famous generals of the war on both sides
