Help with Russian Cannons at Borodino (1 Viewer)

[oberstoskar]

I just got the K&C Napoleonic Russians. The cannon is huge, 1.5x bigger than the previously released French Guard's horse artillery cannon.

Anyone knows if Russian guns are bigger or it's because of the recent 'up scale' modification (like the Tunisia Tiger) by K&C?

Wow.....!!!!
Jings, Crivvens and Help Mah Boab.

That's some spending spree. All those AK items PLUS the K&C Napoleonic Russians as well..?? Gee, I sure hope you didn't get the last of the items I had intended to buy...or I shall be ever so disappointed. - And jealous (LOL).
Did someone help carry all these new purchases home for you?
I sure do hope you'll share all these recent additions to your collection with the rest of the forum by posting some photos of them.
How are you going to display all your new purchases, including that huge cannon..?? On a shelf..?? Or in a spectacularly large diorama..??
Wow, I'm really looking forward to seeing those photos.
Cheers

The French cannon should be a lot smaller in size due to the fact that it is used for Horse Artillery i.e. lighter and more mobile. The Russian cannon is for Foot Artillery i.e. a lot larger calibre and heavier in design.

Hope this helps.

Yeah....Thanks Jeff, appreciate the info.
Can't believe I didn't think of this myself actually. When you think about it, its perfectly obvious and staring you straight in the face.
