I'll take a good look and see if I can pick and mix.

I think most are great but that "bell" bombard looks huge.

I do think I might back it though, I could find a use for a small selection of these artillery pieces.... You can never have enough late 15th century light artillery on wheeled carriages! And I guess a couple of small bombards might see use years down the line for siege terrain.

They are mu faves too as they look quite convincing.

I could be tempted to get several of these things for future siegework terrain. The earthworks with a selection of artillery - a small bombard or two (I already have the big Perry WOTR bombard), the 'burgundian culverins' and the 'repeating veuglaires' to see off any sally attempts from the defenders....

These small wheeled bombards with elevated carriages look interesting too... Does anyone know what source they are based on? The carriages suggest late 15th century.
