The man who changed history!
Napoleon Bonaparte is one of the most fascinating figures in European history—a brilliant strategist, reformer, and creator of the modern army. His military campaigns are lessons in tactics and stories of ambition, determination, and dramatic twists of fate.
Napoleonic firepower
Artillery was Napoleon’s pride, as he began his military career as an artillery officer. He claimed artillery wins battles, and his approach revolutionized cannon use on the battlefield. French artillery used equipment according to the Gribeauval system, established in the 1770s. These included 4-, 8-, and 12-pound cannons and 6-inch howitzers.
12-pound cannons, like the one in the COBI set, were the main firepower in the front line. Supported by trained gunners, these guns could decide battles before infantry clashed.
What’s in the set?
Gunner figure—wearing a dark blue coat with red epaulettes and a shako decorated with a red pompom. The figure holds a rifle with a bayonet, adding realism and character to the scene.
Model of a 12-pound Gribeauval cannon consisting of a cast barrel and a mobile, easy-to-maneuver carriage. The set also includes a cleaning rod for the barrel, faithfully reflecting artillery details and practices of the Napoleonic era.
Ammunition box—containing necessary supplies and charges for operating the cannon. Inside are realistic cannonballs and a powder compartment, allowing fuller historical scene recreation.
