The beginnings of firearm use in medieval Central Europe date back to the late 14th century, although the technology had already been in development elsewhere in Europe since the early 1300s. Here's a focused overview of the early use of firearms in Central Europe, especially in medieval Bohemia, from which we took inspiration for our model. The first references to gunpowder weapons in Central Europe date back to the 1340s-1350s. These were very primitive firearms, such as hand cannons (essentially metal tubes mounted on wooden shafts) and bombards (early artillery).
Bohemia was among the most advanced regions in early firearm use. The Hussite Wars (1419 -1434) were a major turning point. The Hussites, led by Jan ika, innovatively used firearms, including flutes - ptaly from which derived the word pistol and “houfnice” for firing into “houf” crowds (from which the word 'howitzer' derives).
Our models present several of the main types of these early firearms: Flute (Hand cannon), Cudgel Hand Cannon - Four chamber hand cannon usable also as cudgel weapon, hákovnice - hook cannon (for hooking the gun into a shield - Pavise, or battlements), and medium-sized ground artillery cannon “houfnice”. Each Gun is equipped with a morph for firing the ball and with additional smart props (muzzle flames and pan burst). Further hand-firing irons for setting the explosion are also included, along with Genesis 9 poses.
