I just ordered the Oathmark Dwarf Heavy Infantry. The rule book for
Oathmark - Battles of the Lost Age will be released by Osprey at the
beginning of next year. However, you can use these minis, of course, for
other fantasy rule sets. Like Warlords of Erehwon, Dragon Rampant and
others. The miniatures are sculpted by Northstar Military Figures and
like all the other UK companies the plastic sprues are done by Renedra.
Inside the box you find 30 miniatures on 6 sprues a 5 mini
s.
The Dwarf Heavy infantry is wielding one hand weapons with shields or
two-handed weapons. There are also options to build standard bearers and
leaders/champions. The weapons are typical dwarfish like hammers, axes
and some swords. The sprue contains 5 shields but only 2 different
designs. You have also the choice to attach some accessories to the
belts. Like a beer mug, horn, throwing axe and more. The sprue really
shines when it comes to the head varieties. You can choose between 22!
different head options. The scale is 28mm true scale, which means they
are not as big as the GW dwarfs. The casting quality is really good with
almost no flesh, like everything from Renedra. They come with 30 25mm
bases, which might be too big for other game systems, like Kings of War?
In my opinion it's a really good box of dwarf heavy infantry. You get
really nice minis for a price between $39.99 (regular retail)-$29.99
(reduced sale at Fantization Miniatures).
The pictures show the
front and back of one of the 6 spures and 5 assembled minis including
standard bearer and leader/champion.
