"My new Woodland Folk army for Oathmark" Topic

I like Oathmark or other fantasy mass combat games, but I often give the bad guys a lot of creative energy and time and money and the good guys that I fight against them with seem to suffer from lack of development. For a couple of years I've had two bad guy armies -- Undead Oathbreakers and Orcs/Gobbos combined. For the good guys, a mostly finished Dwarven army. I've finally balanced things somewhat by adding a new unauthorized "Woodland" army of Halflings, Fauns, Centaurs, Brownies and (eventually) some Wood elf archers, Ents and Bears. Here's a progress post on my project blog: link

That looks like a fun army.

I was hoping to add another "tiny" unit like pixies or something but the only ones I see are roughly the size other 28mm fantasy creatures. I want TINY pixies or fairies or whatever, kind of like the ones in the Bakshi movie Wizard.

I have a couple of bear figures already, and want to add like a forest wizard and some kind of leader figure. Maybe an Ent or a small unit of Wood Elf miniatures. Still looking for the right figures for those.

Looks like a great army to fight with/against! Would stack them up against my Amazon horde any day

If you desire Elves who are shorter, and smaller framed, than Humans, I would recommend Caesar 1/72 Fantasy Elves. I am painting mine up as Drow, but that is just me. These plastic figures can easily be used for making other creatures -- like Driders! Zoom in on the Drider to see the painted Caesar Elf upper torso. I glued her onto a cheap, Halloween toy spider. Works for me. Fun game of 2e BattleSystem Skirmish. She was 'working' for a Red Dragon, sneaking up on the hapless (but ultimately victorious) band of Adventurers. It did not end well for her…

There is also the Red Box Alliance fantasy stuff: Dwarves, Elves, Centaurs, Anubis Army, etc. Between Red Box and Caesar, you have quite a smorgasbord to choose from! Cheers!

Cool army! I've come to really enjoy oathmark, as you can ‘reskin' it to any fantasy floats your boat. It gives me the ‘old school' vibe, while still being a modern rules set….

Ral Partha Legacy makes small pixies. Quite nice.

Thanks

The King of the Orcs does not think that the Dwarves are the good guys. Plenty of Orc widows and orphans agree.
