North Star Show Off Painted Oathmark Elf Light Infantry
April 3, 2020 by brennon
North Star Military Figures has been showing off a painted example of how the Elf Light Infantry will look once they hit tabletops for Oathmark: Battles Of The Lost Age.
With the rulebook from Osprey Games now getting shipped out and the promise of more plastic kits as the months continue, Oathmark is turning into a very interesting prospect for those who like their Fantasy wargaming on a mass battle scale.
I really like how the Elves have turned out for this range, drawing on some classic Tolkienesque imagery. The plastic kits are also really easy to assemble and a lot of fun to tinker with. This is especially pertinent when you think about how they'll work alongside the existing Frostgrave plastic range too.
I am starting myself an Elf army for Oathmark with an accompanying selection of soldiers from both the Dwarf and Human realms that are part of my kingdom. I am looking forward to actually building up a big force once again and getting together something impressive to take to the field of battle.
What do you make of this collection and have you ordered your book?

Elves easy to assemble and fun – winning combination and they look great with a coat of paint – sold.
very nice elves.
They look very nice!
Very nice, could see these as a nice elf Kow army.
Another winner.
Nice
Already have it on order from Osprey. Elves are on my list but that Dwarf Infantry set is so damn good. Love all the character done to their faces. Think I might do a heavy Dwarf army (what else would it be but heavy?) and when that undead expansion ever raises it’s arms out of the ground, I must obey . . .
Absolutely excellent. Been waiting for these for a long time.
These are looking good and I know that I will be getting them at some point. I just got my shipping notice from North Star for the Core game and some other goodies.
This and the other set of elves would give you a great start. 20 bowmen from this box, 20 armoured lads with swords as elites and a mix of the two with spears as basic infantry.
Oh gawds I’m walking myself into this aren’t I?
Walking,talking and ready to hand over the wallet i reckon…
Ha! Yes! *weeps*
OR get two boxes of each, then you have 3 units of bowmen or sword and board and 3 units of swords or spears. THIS is how we all falter and the megalomania takes over 😀
Never a truer word spoken. There’s always that temptation to force build right away with lovely minis and the Oathmark range are no exception. Of course when they arrive it’ll be worth it and you’ll be a very happy camper indeed ?
Yup, nice elves. Might get a box or two to rebuild my KoW elven army (first gen mantic elves are not great!).
My books on it’s way so a little planning when it arrives to see how I’m going to build my army. Then it will be a shop to fill in the gaps from my list.
The box sets from Oathmark are really nice and the shield transfers you can get for them finish them off a treat especially when you went to get a big rank & file army done quick.
