Product Info
Black Powder Crimean War Royal Horse Artillery 12pdr Howitzer / 6pdr Cannon is an artillery set for the Black Powder historical tabletop wargame, representing British horse artillery during the Crimean War. Produced by Warlord Games, this kit provides mobile fire support designed to keep pace with cavalry and deliver responsive artillery fire where it’s needed most.
Background
The Royal Horse Artillery was trained for speed and flexibility, supporting fast-moving formations with rapid deployment and redeployment. During the Crimean War, RHA batteries played a crucial role by providing direct and indirect fire in fluid engagements, using lighter guns that could maneuver quickly across difficult terrain. The 12-pounder howitzer and 6-pounder cannon reflect the adaptable firepower used to influence battles at critical moments.
What’s Included
This set includes artillery components to build either a 12-pounder howitzer or a 6-pounder cannon, along with crew figures appropriate for Royal Horse Artillery units. Miniatures are supplied with suitable bases and accessories for tabletop use.
About the Model / Components
Miniatures are supplied unassembled and unpainted, typically cast in metal to capture fine detail on guns and crew. Models are scaled for 28mm historical wargaming and are fully compatible with Black Powder and other Crimean War–era tabletop systems. Assembly and painting are required, and standard hobby tools and super glue are recommended.
Why This Product Is a Great Choice
This artillery set is an excellent addition for players building British Crimean War forces who want fast, flexible fire support. It adds tactical depth, historical authenticity, and visual interest to the tabletop, making it ideal for scenario play and combined-arms Black Powder battles.
