Description
The Silver Bayonet: A Skirmish Wargame of Gothic Horror During the Napoleonic Wars, chaos and fear reign as supernatural creatures take advantage of the chaos, striking out at isolated farms, villages, and even military units. A secret award, the Silver Bayonet, is presented to those soldiers brave enough to have faced these creatures and survived. These elite bands of monster hunters are formed from the ranks of one of the great powers and tasked with investigating strange reports, scouring battlefields, and seeking out allies and artifacts to stem the tide of the supernatural menace. But as rival units may forge uneasy alliances, patriotism and national interest will often pit them against each other in races for ancient knowledge or forgotten treasure. This skirmish wargame of gothic horror is set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, where the boundaries between reality and the supernatural are blurred.
