Light Artillery

I have the first three army list books and so far I have seen quite a few with "Heavy Artillery" in their lists.

Heavy artillery is not moveable under the rules. Found this a little surprising, especially as regards bolt shooters, which are not major siege type of engines which you could understand being immovable.

What type of artillery will be classified as "light"? Which armies will have these?

medieval armies have light artillery. it's things like organ guns, which were traditionally not that much bigger than your average cart.
