As the wars of Napoleon ravage Europe, chaos and fear reign and the darkness that once clung to the shadows has been emboldened. Supernatural creatures — vampires, werewolves, ghouls, and worse — take advantage of the havoc, striking out at isolated farms, villages, and even military units.
Riflemen, swordsmen, and engineers fight side-by-side with mystics, occultists, and even those few supernatural creatures that can be controlled or reasoned with enough to make common cause. The Silver Bayonet: A Wargame of Napoleonic Gothic Horror can be played solo, co-operatively, or competitively, with players progressing through a series of interlinked adventures with their soldiers gaining experience and suffering grievous wounds, and their units triumphing...or falling in the face of the shadows.
It is a game of action and adventure where musket and saber meet tooth and claw.
