How did Gustavus Adolphus change warfare?
Gustav's increased firepower was further improved by the addition of artillery support. He standardized the artillery into 6-, 12- and 24-pounders. He also designed a 3-pounder—his regimental piece. This 3-pounder infantry-support gun was an important improvement on traditional artillery.
