Solo Game of The Silver Bayonet

 

I played a few Solo games of The Silver Bayonet while I was working away.

I have been able to get some 2d Neoprene Terrain, to make transport easier (its not as immersive as some nice 3d terrain though ☹️) 

What follows are a few photos for solo scenario 2 ‘The Ruined Chapel’

This scenario pits the Silver Bayonet unit against some revenants & a vampire whilst trying to investigate a ruined chapel (strangely enough 🤔)

Initial set up. I did forget to bring the gravestones, so the skeleton tokens are standing in 😁

The Vampire Makes an appearance

Everyone decides discretion is the better part of valor, and flees before the vampire

In the final couple of turns, poor Corporal Black can’t quite outrun the Vampire & was wounded & immediately had a seizure & collapsed. 

When he eventually returned to base, it was noted that he had gone insane & he was dispatched straight to Bedlam 

All packed ready to take back home, it all packs into 2 boxes & a mat bag

Even More Figures For The Silver Bayonet

 Finished up some more troops and a bad guy for The Silver Bayonet 

A Highlander from Front Rank, 

2 Perry Miniatures Dismounted Light Dragoons to use as Infantrymen

A Light Dragoon to either be a  Supernatural investigator/Veteran Hunter, originally a musician, I cut off his bugle & added a Blunderbus. I do like the Idea of the Musician being the Supernatural Investigator, I like them having a specific uniform & it gives a use to those bugler miniatures that come in the Light Infantry packs  

Another figure that can be either a Veteran Hunter/Supernatural Investigator, I removed the cockade from his hat before painting.  Finally a Doctor, he has a Crooked Dice scientist head & an epaulette from modelling putty. I know that he is wearing an older type of uniform, but I do like that it distinguishes him from the other officers, both these Perry Miniatures are from the Royal Navy command pack, this pack that these last 2 figures come from is such a useful pack to buy & highly recommended.

Also a Pixie originally from Bears Head now sold by Bad Squiddo Games

& Picture of  all the figures to use in the Unit 

More Figures for The Silver Bayonet

I Picked up some miniature for TSB at The Vapnartak show in York from Perry Miniatures, A British Light Infantry command pack (officers above), dismounted Dragoons & a Royal Navy command pack (still in progress ☹️),  as well some French. Annoyingly there wasn’t any Spanish Guerrillas on foot available. 

Any way here’s the rest of the painted pictures of the Light troops & all of the unit so far. The (95th Rifles officer isn't included, as to my eye he looks too small, so I wont be using him or any of the other Foundry 95th that I have) 

I also picked up some Nosferatu Vampires & Giant Wolves from Westwind Productions.

Here's the Wolves with a Bears Head Werewolf & Below a figure that I will use as a Black Dog from Ye Alchemist

   

   

First 2 Figures for The Silver Bayonet

 I managed to pick up a second hand copy of The Silver Bayonet a few weeks ago & I have been trying my best to avoid getting sucked into this game (especially as I had sold off my Flintloque collection ☹️)

Anyway I got some Foundry 95th Rifles so I painted up the Officer to lead my force  & got given the Mary Seacole miniature that was given away at one of the Partizan shows to use as an Ocultist  

I was also give some British Line Infantry, but they will need a repaint  

Rangers of Shadow Deep - The Boss Level

Well we completed the final scenario from The Temple of Madness- The Mirror Enduring.

I used a Old School Bugbear from Meridian Miniatures as Greviks & an Old Grenadier Miniatures Necromancer as Trekatis. We knocked up a wall of fire from some bits of mdf that I had kicking about with a super quick paint job, my youngest had said “it’s magic fire, so it needs to be blue!” 😁 & used some strips of fly mesh as the chain net. I also cut up an old CD and blue tacked it to the back of the snake headed gate thing, to create the mirror.

Only 3 of the companions managed to get through the flames without getting burnt!
Whilst attacking & killing Grevkis in close combat, Trekatis had been severely weakened by constant archery & one final charge with a critical hit finished him off for good!
Everyone managed to make it out alive, Just!
Another superb mission from Mr. McCullough
