The Silver Bayonet

A Wargame of Napoleonic Gothic Horror

Amid the turmoil of the Napoleonic Wars, as Europe reels under the chaos of battle, the darkest creatures of legend—vampires, werewolves, ghouls, and worse—emerge from the shadows, seizing the opportunity to strike. Known as The Silver Bayonet, this skirmish wargame plunges players into a gothic horror setting during this tumultuous era.

Players assemble elite bands of monster hunters from the great powers, combining the martial prowess of riflemen, swordsmen, and engineers with the arcane skills of mystics and occultists. Some even ally with controllable supernatural beings. The game supports solo, cooperative, and competitive play, with campaigns that see characters grow in prowess, sustain injuries, and either overcome the encroaching darkness or succumb to it. Here, traditional warfare meets supernatural horror in a gripping dance of strategy and survival.
