Oathmark - Who's Playing?

[BZ]

Do we know what the planned releases are for Oathmark in 2021? I’m intending to put together a couple of small armies, and have made a few small purchases, but there’s so many unit options without a model (officially, at least).

I understand that all plans would only be Covid permitting, of course.

"Nick Eyre: The Oathmark range is ongoing. We have finished the plastic Human Cavalry and the Dwarf Light Infantry box sets, they are in the queue to be moulded in plastic. Michael Anderson is putting the final touches to the skeleton infantry box set, and that is off to the plastic manufacturer next week. That set is actually going to leap-frog the Cavalry and Dwarves so they can be released at the same time as the Undead supplement in November. Next in line are the Revenants, another Undead type, then Elf Cavalry then the Orc Infantry. Loads and loads to come."

Have you taken a similar photo with mantic ghouls and oathmark models?

Oathmark Elf Light Infantry; Mantic Ghoul; Oathmark Human Infantry; Mantic Ghoul; Oathmark Skeleton Infantry

I do not have a sprue photograph, but there is one on the Mantic site (definitely for the single sprue option, maybe on the box option).
There are two bodies per sprue, each body is a torso and legs and I think they are interchangeable. There is at least one spare head.

I had forgotten about the revenants in that post.

Somewhere we have a list of the box art that appears in Oathmark and the supplements - which is also a hint.

Awesome- thanks mate! But I assume some units will only be released in metal- trolls, ogres, etc. we haven’t had any news on those yet, have we?

I recall seeing an off hand comment by Nick on Facebook about future plastic Ogres....

I wish it were about trolls... I already have 5 reaper ogres.

[Tim Haslam]

Correct!
It was my fault, I was looking at the two ogres available in the Frostgrave range.
Which incidentally, are superb.
Nick said if I could wait a plastic ogre set will be available.
No idea when?

[BZ]

You mean the Rangers of Shadow Deep ogres? They are lovely, too lovely for my taste. A bit looking like Shrek to me. I have them from Reaper (mostly Bobby Jackson sculpts), but the ones from Black Scorpion are also very good.

Any suggestions for Vampires?

Reaper has also some nice metal ones.

Subsequent to an archaeological expedition, I found the original Frostgrave Undead Encounters zip lock bag with the Zombie and one remaining Ghoul sprue.

Zombie sprue

The figures look like they can be mix and matched for additional variation.

Does anyone has Wargames Atlantic spiders? I recived my sprues today, and they are awesome! The legs have ball-joints, and so they are very adjustable, but also pretty hard to build.

I've been considering grabbing some...most reviews of them, however, seem to point to them being fiddly to put together.

Its true, but the result are excellent! And considering they usability in different games (even sci-fi parts are on the sprue) and the price/piece, they absolutely worth it. The only problem is, the you rarely need so much spiders... But buying single sprues solves this.
