Does size matter? Bombard length?

Hello

Was just looking at the bombard in EMM8 (and Ottomans) and was just wondering on the length of the casting, would it fit on a 40mm depth base?



Cheers, thanks for any info.

It definitely won't fit on a 40mm deep base, they would just fit on 60mm deep but there would be no space in front or behind

My EMM8 are on 80mm deep bases
