Oathmark’s Metal Goblins Go Up For Pre-Order From North Star
November 16, 2017 by brennon
Oathmark welcomes a new series of pre-orders this week for the Goblins from North Star. As well as the plastic kits for the infantry you can also get your hands on the metal models to support them as a range of characters too.
Akkad The Accursed (seen above) is the model that will be added to each of the special pre-order packages giving you an original general to lead your force on the tabletop. I like the conical helmet and the style of the scalemail he's wearing as well as that ferocious scimitar.
When it comes to additional characters they have you covered with the three Champions pictured here. Each of them comes with alternative weapons. I personally like the big axe and the whip of that taskmaster. You could see him whipping some great beast into a frenzy.
As well as the Champions we also have the Great Goblin, Shaman and War Drummer. I'm not overly captivated by two of these models but the Shaman looks fantastic. I think the wolf cloak really works nicely but I'd be tempted to use one of the Champions as my leader rather than the Great Goblin himself.
I'm sure there are plenty of other opinions on this range out there and I'd love to hear your thoughts. Additionally, all being well, it would be great if we start to learn more about the rules of the game soon from Osprey which would be ace!
Are you being sucked into Oathsworn?

I’m actually loving this ugly malformed orcs. Reminds me of old tolkien artwork.
There’s a huge 80s D&D vibe coming from these. 80s D&D was my gateway into minis gaming and I’ll need uncharacteristic levels of self-control to not go nostalgia crazy over these.
At least you made a token gesture toward self control before you bowed your head to the inevitable
I wonder how many I could get in trade for my house?
You still have your house to trade ? 🙂
Looks like I’ll need to keep it @huscarle , or I won’t have a place to put my goblins. Besides, it’s winter in Manitoba. I can’t think of anyone who would want this house now 🙂
Really like the metal ones, they have character
Really like these, got a real Tolkienesque vibe.
Those sure have old school feel to them.
These look good, but they are the metal characters.
Any pictures of the unpainted plastic ones around?
The paint job did not do them justice.
Yes there, within the new newsletter from Northstar Miniatures 🙂
