Only the most expert Engineers have the range of skills needed to make a proper cannon. They can be made quickly in brass, of course, with a simple mould and a wooden frame, but sooner or later they will crack like the shoddy things they are. Only a master can make a gun from steel because only a master can make the machines and tools that will make the cannon. Even then, the finest gun can be betrayed by poor powder. Mixing the components in the right quantities and fixing it so that it detonates consistently is an art in itself. Proving a cannon can take centuries, by which time it is a part of the clan that made it; like a favourite daughter, attention is lavished upon it and the cannon carries their pride on its broad wheels.

Cannons follow the rules given in the Warhammer rulebook. Note that a Dwarf Cannon is the smaller of the two types defined.

You may add a Dwarf Cannon to your Dwarf army as a Special choice.

The Dwarf Engineers Guild has developed a four-barrelled cannon called an Organ Gun or Organ Cannon. Its name derives from the pipes of a musical organ, which the array of barrels resembles. The Organ Cannon's barrels are smaller and lighter than that of an ordinary cannon, which means it lacks the range and hitting power, but the gun does have the advantage of being able to fire several shots at once.

The Organ Gun has more barrels than an ordinary cannon but these are smaller and lighter. Its range and the damage it inflicts are considerably different from a cannon's.

You may add a Dwarf Organ Gun to your Dwarf army as a Rare choice.
