So I'm looking to replace the guns that come with the Mantic Dwarf Army for Kings of war.

I'm looking for something that looks proper in a fantasy setting but am open to some historical guns too (like the ornate Ottoman guns of the 17th century).

I'm looking for both cannon and mortars/ bombards. Both in 28mm.

Thanks for tips!

You could try Manchu Imperial artillery from the Opium Wars which are very ornate, maybe too ornate.

Gringo 40's carry them.

Grenadier did a large one in the 1980's.

The WizKids Deep Cuts line has some pretty good options, though they lack a crew for them.

I believe you will find some from shops that do 3D printing on Etsy Lots of dwarf stuff from many of the shops.

There is also the old BattleMasters game, by Milton Bradley. It had a Human cannon + crew. Can be found on e-Bay. One current auction is listed at $8.99 USD for the cannon + two-man crew.

I made a few armies out of figures from these games, back in the late 90's. They prime decent, and they take paint well enough. Cheers!

Fyi I ended up getting a couple of Ral Partha Cannons and a Bombard/ Mortar. The guns are great though the crews are too small for use with Kings of War Dwarves.

Thanks again.
