Ramshackle Games Load the Artillery Cannons!
May 31, 2012 by brennon
Ramshackle Games have bought some heavy fire power to the battlefield with this rather awesome looking Artillery Cannon. Check it out in all its devastating beauty!
This cannon comes with the two crew and looks awesome. Great for Sci-Fi gaming and maybe even something in Weird World War! And if you fancy bringing out something for a bit more indirect fire then check out the Mortar variant...
Clean design with lots of potential. Another great release from the Ramshackle Games crew!
What do you make of their Big Bertha Gun?
Lovely looking stuff and well sized for plausible artillery pieces and perfect for 40K IG support, plus you could always ‘orkify’ them. The stabilizers on the front and rear are a nice realistic touch and coming with both weapon options is a big plus for magnetizing.
With regards to Weird War use, I’d rather put this in SOTR than Dust as Dust has its own more advanced and polished look to its comic book style while this is ‘blockier’ like a lot of the Westwind stuff. Still, it’s a great, versatile model.
That’s a rather good model. I can see the cannon be used for a conversion for any of the mortar choices in the IG codex.
The Mortar has a lot of potential from steam punk (if you loose the wheels) to 40K. I dont like the cannon as the barrel looks like the barrel off of a pistol, it even has the fore sight still on it, weird.
Thats nicely sculpted cannon with some options. Its good that there is option between longer and thinner barrel (maybe anti-tank) and shorter and fatter mortar.
A great sculpt and looks well thought out, I particularly like how the rear stabilizing legs fold and unfold to be hauled as a trailer, clever design.
