We are delighted that set VX0010 British Napoleonic Foot Artillery is ready for pre-order. We expect them to start shipping by 28th April, and we will have a limited stock at Salute on 24th April.
The set contains:
- 3 x guns with options of short 6 pdr, long 6 pdr, 9 pdr and 5.5 inch howitzer barrels
- 3 x limbers
- 15 crew, featuring:
- multiple arm options
- head variants enabling you to field your crew wearing stovepipe shako for the Peninsular War or Belgic shako for Waterloo
- officer head-and-coat tail variants suitable for either the Peninsular or Waterloo
Also included are the artillery rules for The March of Eagles. Written by Barry Hilton.
The cannons and limber in this set have been sculpted digitally, an exciting new development for Victrix. Below are some renders of the cannon and limber. Photographs of the plastic models will appear shortly.
Also, we announced around Christmastime we were working on some non-Napoleonic sets. We can say that these sets are Later Hoplite Greeks - including Thebans and Spartans - which will all be released at once around late summer. We will have some news and images soon on the website, and will be showing off some of the masters at Salute on 24th April.
Also at Salute. we hope to have our Portuguese line infantry, grenadiers, mounted colonels and command on release, and and also some really wonderful Hanoverian head packs to convert the Victrix British to Hanoverians. More on these nearer the time.
