Hello everyone, How is it that the Wargames Foundry reference: CWG001 Artillery Piece offers a Choice of 5 Barrels for a single carriage? link All the guns and howitzers of this war had the same carriage??? Thank you. |

Four of the barrels provided in the Wargames Foundry set would have been mounted on the same carriage. The 12 pound Napoleon was supposed to be used with No. 2 Field Carriage and the others were to be used with the No. 1. The two carriages are very similar in height and width. The greatest difference between the No.1 and the No. 2 that may be visible on the gaming table is that the No. 2 is about 7 inches/18 cm longer. link |

Basically, all field artillery carriages looked the same. |

I agree. I'm usually a stickler but unless it's an oddball like the Wiard Rifle or the 12-pdr Mountain Howitzer I model them all the same. |
