Recently Osprey Games came out with a surprise announcement – The Silver Bayonet. This is a new game coming out (likely in October 2021) by Joseph A. McCullough. You know Joseph from Frostgrave and Stargave fame.
Update: November 15, 2021 – The Silver Bayonet is now out and available.
For more, check out the following two posts. One is all about creating your Commander and band of monster hunters for The Silver Bayonet. I titled that one “A Quick First Look – The Silver Bayonet.” I also wrote an article looking at the monsters you can expect to play against in the book.
Frostgrave is an absolutely amazing game and I have plenty of posts about it on Must Contain Minis. Stargrave also looks extremely promising and I am a big fan!
Although The Silver Bayonet does not come out until much later this year, it is already up for Pre-Order on Amazon. I am sure we will likely see something run by our friends at North Star Military Figures and Osprey Games too.
Below I share with you the two announcements that we have seen so far on Facebook.
The Initial Tease

The next day, they followed this up with the official announcement for The Silver Bayonet.

Wrapping it up…
I have to say that this new Marketing Executive that Osprey Games has brought on board is already doing an amazing job. The hype behind Stargrave is real and I got my hands on that book. More on that later. He is also continuing to get tons of content out about their upcoming products.
This tease about The Silver Bayonet, although still far off, is very cool. If you like Napoleonics and either Joseph A. McCullough rulesets (or alternative rules to keep your Napoleonic collection fresh), make sure you keep your out for this product.
The Silver Bayonet is one of a slew of announcements and content coming from Osprey Games. All of this is very exciting and exhilarating.
Until next time, Happy Gaming Everyone!!!
