North Star Cultist III for Frostgrave

 The Frostgrave Cultists III set from North Star contains multi part multi pose plastic figures, lightly armoured (if they have armour). They are suitable for general cult rabble as well as miscreants for SF games.

This one will be part of a Militia unit for my Necromancer's army.

North Star Cultists III for Frostgrave

 The latest addition to the North Star range of plastic figures for Frostgrave is Cultists III. This adds another selection of cultist figures, lighter armoured than Cultists I and Cultists II.

Standard North Star box (though it feels a bit more flimsy).

The box contains four sprues, each of which builds five figures.

There are heads and hands to build undead out of the figures as well.

There is one particular weapon of note, a chainsaw!

That will be an entertaining add on.

Without the chainsaw, these are going to supply some lighter troops for my Necromancer's army, and possibly some melee troops for my Converted one as well.

Wargames Atlantic Skeleton Cavalry

 Wargames Atlantic released the Skeleton Cavalry box set a while ago.

As it says on the tin box, there are ten horses, two chariots and twenty five skeletons.

The twenty five skeletons include the riders and crew of the horses and chariots, but can be built in a number of combinations (see the box text above).

The skeletons are of the Ray Harryhausen style with Ancient Greek style kit, shields and armour.

There are no instructions, but it appears the chariot can be built either as an open sided or closed sided chariot.

The intention is to build the horses as zombie/revenant style so they will need some internals and skin added. The crew may need kit-bashing with the Oathmark Revenant Infantry to match the more Northern European style,

Not Warfare 2020

North Star and Osprey Games released The second expansion for Oathmark on the 19th of November, and were running a pre-order offer from the end of October.

North Star had a five for the price of four offer on the Oathmark plastic boxes - including the new Skeleton figures.

So I reinforced my Human forces, added a whole box to the dwarf Infantry sprue I picked up at Salute a while back, added a Goblin box (I will need more) and two boxes of the new Skeleton Infantry. I also added  a Fireforge Northman Cavalry box and a Frostgrave Soldiers box.

As the pre-order was about the new Oathbreaker supplement for Oathmark, I also ordered the first supplement )Battlesworn and Oathbreakers.

Battlesworn adds experienced units that can improve over battles, engineers and rivers.

Oathbreakers adds undead armies and Legendary Heroes. There will be another post on this supplement later.

Frostgrave Second Edition adds and improves the existing skirmish game - more on this when I get a chance to read it.

While I was at it, I added a few additional items (more 25mm bases and sabot trays), added a new scale-theme to my collections (Mark Copplestones Gaslands figures in 20mm) and smoother bits and pieces.
