Editing Gunpowder (Warhammer Fantasy) (section)

===[[The Empire (Warhammer Fantasy)|The Empire of Man]]===

As mentioned above, the Empire of Man is known for it's Steel, Faith and Gunpowder, and given the faction is on the verge of the industrial revolution post their current Renaissance aesthetic, it is likely correct. Most blackpowder innovations, including the innovative artillery pieces like the [[Helstorm Rocket Battery]], [[Helblaster Volley Cannon]] and come from the [[Master Engineer]]s of [[Nuln]], who have improved their craft substantially, even compared to the masterpieces of the Dawi. Indeed, it is the [[Imperial Gunnery School]] which takes your average upstart soldier and trains them into one of many elite units including [[Handgunner]]s, a member of an [[Iron Company]], honored amongst [[Nuln Ironside]]s, or-if your parents are rich and want you to serve in the military without risking serious injury-an [[Empire Pistolier]].

Pretty much every army has a Empire Great Cannon or two, bombards are far from uncommon, Mortars litter the battlefield, and firearms have become so common that even [[Free Company Militia]] and the self-appointed members of the [[Witch Hunter]]s can afford them. If this is not enough [[dakka]] for you, a [[War Wagon]] or, if circumstances are dire, a [[Steam Tank]] may be issued. 

As a great general once said, "there isn't a problem that can't be solved with more cannons."

The Empire even has non-blackpowder based weaponry in the form of the [[Luminary of Hysh]], but that's not for this page.
