Napoleonic Gothic Horror game coming from Osprey?

[Grumpy Gnome]

I have not tried any kitbashing Napoleonics for this project yet but yeah, I would have thought you could mix various multi-part plastic kit bits. I had for example planned to use some Wargames Atlantic Afghan bits with various other kits, like Frostgrave crewmen, Gripping Beast Arabs and Wargames Factory Persians.

I'm totally ok with fictional uniforms!

Good to see another game that can use the Dire Alliance: Horror's gothic horror miniatures.

ObPlug: 100 mini's for $70 plus shipping. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/blacklistgames/dire-alliance-horror?ref=user_menu

Anyone know if I can use, say, my 1920's Call of Cthulhu adventurers, CMON World of Smog steampunk types, or monster hunters from Horror Series 1 instead of Napoleonics?

Yes, its as if this game was written for it or vice versa! LOL

Thinking of miniatures some of the Westwind Gothic Horror figures maybe suitable, the Sleepy Hollow armed civilians in particular would be pretty good as would some of the Vampire hunters. Most monsters are generic enough to fit the bill. My Highgate Miniatures Vampire Lords and Queens will fit, the lesser vampires perhaps less so as their clothes are later Victorian dress.

Nick,Thirteen is the first of five novels,following this horror theme through the 1850's , 18880's, and up to the demise of the Year,so your figure range would be perfect for the later novels

This is very true. I have not managed to read any of the subsequent books yet. I have book two sitting patiently in the must get round to pile...

I think though given the rules in question are aimed at the beginning of the C19th I thought it more appropriate not to plug the Highgate figures too much

Fair enough!

Watch Pride and Prejudice and Zombies for a take on this.

As it's fictional anyway I'd like to be able to work Sharpe's lads into this. I'd imagine Harper's Nock loaded with silver shot would rather inconvenience some supernatural beasties.

Can imagine them Being sent on dangerous missions 👍

A good chance to get my Flintloque figures out?

[Grumpy Gnome]

Sharpe’s Gold definitely could have taken a darker, more supernatural turn.

And aye, sounds like Flintloque models would be an option.

[Inkpaduta]

I also had the thought of getting my Flintloque figures out for this.

Love to see it.  I hope it diverges a bit away from the "Grave" series of rules, and judging by the fact it is called The Silver Bayonet, it sounds like it may just do that.
