Happy birthday!

I saw this announcement a few months back, what are the chances it’s just frostgrave with Napoleonic figures?!

If it’s something different then might give it a look as I have always liked Napoleonic stuff.

[Darkson (Simon)]

No idea. If it is will be a pass (like *Grave, but don't need a 3rd/4th version).
But interested in the "weird" world view, and while I'm not keen on historical stuff I wouldn't be adverse to getting a few for the right game.

Might want to take a look at this...

I think those are for a different type of game, from what I’ve read silver bayonet is essentially 1800ish clothing style miniatures with vampires.

Those models do look cool but I think it’s more “what if the apocalypse happened in 1800” type of thing.

Frostgrave with D10s?

[Darkson (Simon)]

There's a post (somewhere!) on FB from the author saying it would use a different set of rules to the *Grave games, so I don't know if using D10s is what he meant, though I doubt it.
Will continue to keep an eye out for more details.

Just watched the video you linked above, and yeah, seems closer to Rangers (unit creation, clues, campaign) but with a pvp addition (along with the random monsters) and a different combat system (will have to re-watch, as I'm not sure if they mean it's a D10 system or a 2D10 system for combat).

At the moment, interest is piqued, but I'll hopefully watch some more of their videos to see how it goes on.

Pre-order is live (or soon will be) on North Star:

Definitely interested, but not 100% yet.

I won’t be jumping on any pre order, got plenty of Nap figures to use. Also will wait for some reviews/how to play videos.

If it’s Frostgrave with d10s then can probably skip it all together.
