  • ASTRA MILITARUM SOLDIERS of the IMPERIUM These Datasheets Allow You to Fight Apocalypse Battles with Your Astra Militarum Miniatures
    ASTRA MILITARUM SOLDIERS OF THE IMPERIUM These datasheets allow you to fight Apocalypse battles with your Astra Militarum miniatures. Each datasheet includes the characteristics profiles of the unit it describes, as well as any wargear and special abilities it may have. KEYWORDS Throughout these datasheets you will come across the <Regiment> keyword. This is shorthand for a keyword of your choosing, as described below. <REGIMENT> Most Astra Militarum units are drawn from a regiment. Some datasheets specify which regiment the unit is drawn from (e.g. Mukaali Riders have the Tallarn keyword, so are drawn from the Tallarn Regiment), but where a datasheet does not, it will have the <Regiment> keyword. When you include such a unit in your army, you must nominate which regiment that unit is from. You then simply replace the <Regiment> keyword in every instance on that unit’s datasheet with the name of your chosen regiment. For example, if you were to include an Atlas Recovery Tank in your army, and you decided it was from Vostroya, its <Regiment> Faction keyword is changed to Vostroyan and its Recovery Vehicle ability would then read: ‘At the end of the Action phase, this unit can to repair one friendly Vostroyan Vehicle unit in base contact with it.

  • Gunpowder on MYSTARA Unpowder-Using Siege Weapons-Is a Novelty in the Known World Since 1014 AC
    Gunpowder on MYSTARA unpowder-using siege weapons-is a novelty in the Known World since 1014 AC. An obscure Cleric from the Heldannic Order, Brother Berthold Schwartz of Freiburg (now deceased), claimed to be the inventor of gunpowder. That can’t be Gprov ed since it appeared in various areas almost at the same time. Of course, this is reason enough for the kindly Heldannic bunch to feel that all the other nations have no right to use this holy weapon sent by Vanya. It would seem that gunpowder is a byproduct of the Great War between Thyatis and Alphatia. he nations that have access to gunpowder could be Thyatis, Karameikos, the Heldannic Knights, Darokin, Rockhome, and faraway Ochalea. Glantri, of course, would probably seek to have every speck of this despicable, non-magical (as Tthey see it) filth scoured from the surface of Mystara (“Peh! There isn’t enough of this evil powder in King Stefen’s Mad Mary to rival our Glantrian fireballs!“). Between these two extremes lie the “have-nots.” Some don’t really care or aren’t wealthy enough for this kind of novelty (like Ierendi, Minrothad Guilds, Aengmor, Five Shires, Ethengar, Northern Reaches, Ylaruam, and Wendar), but might be able to acquire it if needed. A host of others are frothing at the mouth for the skills and secrets necessary to create the precious gunpowder and the weapons that utilize it. In the latter group would fall all Humanoids, Hule, and most of the Isle of Dawn nations. None of them would be above kidnapping, blackmail, and other treachery to acquire what they want.

Miśta-Jakubowska3 Received: 9 February 2018 /Accepted: 3 May 2018 /Published online: 18 May 2018 # The Author(s) 2018 Abstract The paper discusses a gun barrel of a possibly late 15th-early 16th c. date from the collection of the Castle Museum in Malbork (Marienburg), Poland (MZM/468/MT). The barrel was originally part of a hand-held gun (a hackbut?) and was later converted into a light cannon. The barrel was made from unevenly carburised soft steel (c. 0.1–0.2% C). Both metallographic examinations and the analysis of slag inclusions with the use of multivariate statistics suggest that the metal in the barrel was manufactured using the direct (bloomery) smelting process.

Gunpowder, the oldest of all explosives, has been the subject of many scientific investigations, sup- ported by innumerable experiments ; but Nature guards her secrets well ; and to this day it cannot be said that the cycle of chemical changes brought about by the combustion of gunpowder is thoroughly understood. Its original components vary, but are generally about 75 parts potassium nitrate, 15 parts carbon, and 10 parts sulphur, with other ingredients some- times added. These materials, when simply mixed together, burn with considerable vigour, but cannot rank as an explosive until they have been thoroughly incorporated, so that the different molecules are brought into such close proximity that each finds a neighbour ready and willing to combine on the smallest encouragement. Heat furnishes the necessary stimulus, by pro- 2 MODERN GUNS AND SMOKELESS POWDER. moting chemical activity ; and, when combined with concussion, the molecules are driven closer to- gether, and this intimate association accelerates their combination. The effect of mere concussion is shown to greater advantage when any of the more dangerous ex- plosives, such as iodide of nitrogen, are subjected to experiment.

    The Wakasa tale: an episode occurred when guns were introduced in Japan F. A. B. Coutinho Faculdade de Medicina da USP Av. Dr. Arnaldo 455 São Paulo - SP 01246-903 Brazil e-mail: coutinho @dim.fm.usp.br Introduction : Very often the collector of Japanese swords becomes interested in both Japanese armor and Japanese matchlocks ( teppo or tanegashima ). Not surprisingly, however, the books that deal with swords generally deal very superficially with teppo: the little information provided on the history of teppo may not answer all the questions which may arise. In fact, most books mention only that the teppo were introduced in Japan by the Portuguese in 1543. Sometimes it is mentioned that this happened in Tanegashima , a small island in the south of Japan. Occasionally, some authors add a little more to the story; for example, I. Bottomley and A.P. Hobson ( Bottomley (1996) page 124) write that “the Lord of Tanegashima bought two teppo… for an exorbitant sum”. He asked his swordsmith to copy the guns. There were some technical problems which the swordsmith finally resolved “by exchanging his daughter for lessons with another Portuguese who arrived a short time after.” Also according to Hawley ( Hawley (1977 ) page 94), the governor of the Island tried to buy a gun: “…making all sorts of offers which the trader continued to refuse. Finally the governor, perhaps to soften him up, put on a big going-away feast complete with music, drinks and geisha . At this feast the trader got a glimpse of the governor´s daughter who was an outstanding beauty.

The Ottoman Gunpowder Empire and the Composite Bow Abstract The Ottoman Empire is known today as a major Gunpowder Empire, famous for its prevalent use of this staple of modern warfare as early as the sixteenth century. However, when Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq visited Constantinople from 1554 to 1562, gunpowder was not used by the Sipahi cavalry who stubbornly, it seems, insisted on continuing to use the composite bow that the Turks had been using for centuries. This continued, despite their fear of European cavalry who used “small muskets” against them on raids. Was this a good idea? Was the composite bow a match or contemporary handheld firearms? Were Turkish tactics incompatible with firearms to the point that the Ottomans would have lost their effectiveness on the battlefield? Could the

  • The Introduction of Guns in Japanese History – from Tanegashima to the Boshin War – Oct.3 (Tue) to Nov
    Special Exhibition The Introduction of Guns in Japanese History – From Tanegashima to the Boshin War – Oct.3 (Tue) to Nov. 26 (Sun), 2006 National Museum of Japanese History Outline of Exhibition The history of guns in Early Modern Japan begins with their arrival in 1543 and ends with the Boshin War in 1868. This exhibition looks at the influence that guns had on Japanese politics, society, military and technology over this period of three centuries, as well the unique development of this foreign culture and the process of change that took place while Japan was obtaining military techniques from Europe and the United States at the time of transition from the shogunate to a modern nation state. An enormous number of materials, approximately 300, including new discoveries, form this exhibition arranged in three parts. Since the National Museum of Japanese History first opened its doors, the Museum has conducted research on the history of guns and acquired more materials, mainly due to the efforts of Professor UDAGAWA Takehisa, the Museum's curator responsible for this exhibition. As a result of acquiring the three most renowned gun collections in Japan -- the YOSHIOKA Shin'ichi Gun Collection, ANZAI Minoru Gunnery Materials and part of the TOKORO Sokichi Gun Collection -- our collection of guns, related items and documents is the finest in Japan in terms of both quality and quantity. This exhibition is the culmination of many years spent acquiring guns and the findings of research conducted over that time. * “S.N.“ (Serial Numbers) in this explanatory pamphlet show the numbers written at the upper-left of white plates for each article on display.
