Anyone know of a QRS for Silver Bayonet?

I've checked the Osprey site and can't seem to find one, although they exist for their other Fantasy games!

I resorted to making my own – a two-column Word doc with reduced margins sufficed for the turn sequence and most-used rules. There isn't one on boardgamegeek, although there are some unit rosters.

I have the game book and there is none, but it is pretty simple.

Yeah it looks like a simple game to play but there seems a lot of dice rolling for actions or attempted actions, reactions etc.

Can't see myself remembering all the options open to me at various points in the game play. What you can do and when and where you can do it seems fair enough.

Just don't want to be turned into a toad or whatever by forgetting a dice role option to get out of it! 🤣

I noted that the authors previous two fantasy games have their QRS sheets available on line its a bit of a drag that this set doesn't have one!

Well, I agree that there is a lot of dice rolling, red for Skill and blue for Power and black for Monster. unfortunately I just checked the rule book again and there is no QRS. We will all have to make one. Maybe someone who likes to do this sort of thing will create one an post it on TMP or somewhere. If I come up with one, which I might, I will let it be known.

I don't know if I'd characterize it as a lot of dice rolling – you roll 2d10 to see if you hit with a shot or a melee strike, and if you do you don't have to roll for damage because one of the dice you just rolled – typically the blue Power die – doubles as your damage die. One roll per shot/strike seems pretty standard to me for skirmish gaming.

You don't, for example, have to roll to activate each figure as is the case in some skirmish games.
