Blood and Bayonets: Land and Sea Battles in the Napoleonic Era

Blood & Bayonets is a 28mm skirmish game that immerses players in the battles and conflicts of the Napoleonic Wars. It joins Blood & Valor, Blood & Steel, and Blood & Crowns as the next installment in a series of games based on Firelock Games’ flagship product, Blood & Plunder. Blood & Bayonets allows players to recreate the countless skirmishes, raids, patrols, and small ship actions, that occurred during the Napoleonic Wars. Blood & Bayonets focuses on infantry formation and tactics used during the period. Formations are extremely important when controlling your force. For instance, units in line formation can volley fire, units in attack column are devastating on the charge, and units in skirmish formation can screen the troops behind them.
