As a collector of a ragtag, incomplete collection of assorted fantsy models, Oathmark is at the top of my "must-try" list.

Coming to this a bit late I know! Everything Joe produces seems to have the perfect balance of fun, playability, simple yet immersive rules and the encouragement to do your own thing.

The more I hear about this game the more I am sold in it. D10, consistent tech level, being able to take a force from many races, activation rolls, and alternative activations. I'm already putting money aside for this game.

My roots are in Fantasy war gaming(and sci-fi), however I primarily now have concentrated on Historicals. That said I am partial to Frostgrave and Oathmark because well written and presented fantasy can be as engaging as the best historical stuff. Thats why I took my subscription of WI. I presume I am the norm now, someone who is into both and appreciates coverage of both.

Appreciate the interview! Been looking forward to this release for a while.

I love Joe's Work, excellent interview can't wait to get Oathmark!

Really like how this is turning out, the art and direction they are taking is quite nice and classic.

This interview was very helpful to me. It is good to hear it from the guy that made it.

Big fan of Frostgrave. Thought I'd left my Warhammer days behind me. But I might take a look at this. Be very interested to see what he does with the magic system.

You can also check out Osprey's Dragon Rampant. It's a wonderful light fantasy system.

@@estrathmeyer yeh I might take a look. Have so many systems on the go. A song of fire and ice takes some beating though. If you've not tried it yet. You must.

Interesting stuff and a nice chilled out interview :)

Love the Kingdoms and Campaign. Thinking of ordering the book.

This sounds great!!

The narrative element really has me intrigued.

Why the sound always so quiet when came to interview???

I enjoyed this video.

Well, with COVID and all that, I went into my garage and pulled out my last Fantasy Warhammer project that I never finished out of moth balls - an army of hobbits. Maybe proxying then as goblins would be appropriate.

Love it!

Was this filmed in the 1970's? I think I saw this guy doing open university back in the 70's.

Did you learn anything?

I would love to see a new expansion for Oathmark. Just to collect more models and monsters.

Elves get access to Giant Spiders, but they don't have Drider cavalry...

I thought about that. Room for maybe a 2nd wave of add on armies?

He seems to use that to mark disorganized units.

0:12 Wargames Illustrated: his last name is misspelled in the video title and description. At least you go it right in the video.

Not a fan of removing models. Kings of War totally changed my mind on that idea.

Yeah I switched over to Kings of War and fell in love. All other systems pale in comparison. Don't wanna go back :D

Ogres, Giants, Trolls and Dragons - say no more!

So now we have diversity and multi-culturalism in fantasy war gaming? Lol. Orcs, Elves, Dwarves, Goblins, Trolls, Ogres and Humans all working together? I hope they wrote rules for trans-models too.....like a male elf transitioning to a female orc. Wait a minute: am I a racist misogynist if I only play Dwarf males? Errrr....No thanks.....the world is weird enough without confusing my gaming too!

You're acting like an ass. This gives players a lot of options for building armies. If someone has several small armies from skirmish games you can put them together into a big army and start playing right away.

That seems a very ridiculous hot take. I mean you have to look no further than Middle Earth to find pretty much most of those combos... Dwarves fought with both Humans and Elves, There's evil humans and even Dwarves in the employ of the dark forces... and if you're playing an army of Dark Elves, why wouldn't they enslave some Goblins, Trolls or Ogres? Why couldn't you have wood elves with spiders, but also goblins with spiders? Honestly reads more like you're the one looking for anything at all to be offended over.

So your response to being given more options is to act offended? Ok, a bit weird. Also, fantasy is littered with alliances of different races, so it isn't anything new.
