'Mercenary' from KenR: Italian Wars Artillery

The thing about an Italian Wars Army is that a great deal of it was Mercenary, last week's entries of both Stradiots and Swiss Polearm would have qualified as would next week's Condottiero Gendarme, so I didn't really plan for this bonus round, it was literally a case of what fell of the paint table nearest to the submission date.

So it turned out that this gun ended up being finished at the wrong (or right) time to be the Yarkshire Gamer Mercenary Bonus Round Entry.

The figures are 28mm Foundry being sold as a set with the gun and 4 crew, under normal conditions it would be 1 crew weapon at 10 pts plus 4 figures at 5 for 30 points but with it being a bonus round an extra 50 to make a grand total of 80 s gratefully accepted.

The start of the Italian Wars saw the introduction of the cast cannon ball and the Artillery Train of the French astounded the Italians when they first saw it. Still relatively new Artillery wasn't far off a form of magic to the average person with Professional Gun Crew the norm.

Another addition to the Italian Wars Project, more Gendarme next week.
