Last night we had a great game of Silver Bayonet between Will’s British, Wayne’s Prussians and Guru’s French heroes.

French volley fire

We played Scenario 7 which is a shoot-out in a farm with some bandits one of whom is a Changeling – but which one.

The French take first blood as one bandit bites the dust. Alas he was not the changeling.

It is hard to tell who was more dangerous the goats or the Prussians.

The tabletop

French try to take out more bandits.

The French officer takes out another bandit, but not the changeling.

The Prussians take out another bandit.

The French officer takes out his second bandit

Firing both pistols.

Hold still you ass!

Now down to just two bandits hiding in the farmhouse

The British kill the seventh bandit who was the changeling!

Abdul kills the changeling who promptly turns into the Book of Cain that we have been searching for.

The French Sergeant goes down to bandit fire.

The French Occultist, Neb Nefer, takes out the last bandit and has the Book of Cain almost in his grasp!

Abdul quickly dispatches Neb Nefer with his trusty blade – thwarting French plans.

The Prussian Grenadier sneaks in behind Abdul and snatches the Book of Cain (the werewolf model).

After several melees, and falls back, the Prussian Grenadier makes a run for home with the book!

Prussian compatriots attempt to protect the book and its carrier.

More Prussians go down.

A long range British shot takes out the Grenadier, leaving the book on the ground.

Abdul is shot by the Doctor with surgical precision.

Yum!

Carnage in the farmhouse home paddock as the Prussians escape with the book.

Birnam Wood travels to Guru

A great game was had by all.

Of those downed during the fight a British and a Prussian soldier were killed and a Frenchman and an Englishman received permanent injuries. The French Caporal Jules Leger will now have to be invalided out with permanent injuries to his left leg, right arm and now has the “shakes” as well!

If you haven’t tried Silver Bayonet you really should!
