Relicblade Unleashes New Hard Plastic Battle Pigs Miniatures

Relicblade has announced an impressive new addition to their fantasy skirmish range — the Hard Plastic Battle Pigs, a fresh multi-pose kit that brings durable plastic to their previously metal model line.

TL;DR

The new Relicblade Battle Pigs kit is the game’s first release in hard plastic, offering hobbyists:

  • High-quality multi-pose pig warriors with customizable parts
  • Easier conversions and lighter models for gameplay
  • A big step forward for indie miniature production

Pig Power on the Tabletop

With the new hard plastic Battle Pigs, Relicblade is shifting the game’s production toward a more modern standard — offering the same gritty detail of his sculpts, but in a format that’s easier to assemble and modify.

Each Battle Pig sports the trademark mix of humor and brutality that defines Relicblade’s world: muscle-bound boar warriors in patchwork armor, brandishing cleavers and axes. The hard plastic format allows for dynamic posing, weapon swaps, and potential cross-kit customization with other miniatures — making them appealing even beyond the Relicblade system.

Skirmish-Ready for Any Game

For players using the Gangfight Skirmish Game System, these Battle Pigs can easily form the core of a savage warband in Chronicle, our fantasy setting. Their bulky frames make perfect stand-ins for Heavy or Leader characters — brutal melee specialists or mutant enforcers from the darker corners of the world.

The move to plastic could also open doors for broader distribution and accessibility, signaling a new era for indie wargames where small creators can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with major brands.

No firm release date has been confirmed yet, but fans can follow the official Relicblade site for updates and preorder announcements.

Can Your Army Withstand the March of Oathmark’s New Heavy Infantry?

North Star Military Figures has revealed the upcoming Human Heavy Infantry set for the Oathmark fantasy range, arriving this November. These all-new plastic miniatures bring fully armored warriors to the human kingdoms — a long-awaited upgrade that captures the grit and realism of classic fantasy armies.

TL;DR

New plastic Human Heavy Infantry are coming to Oathmark in November.

  • Fully armored troops with swords, axes, and maces.
  • Includes interchangeable heads and shields.
  • Ideal for both mass battles and narrative skirmish games.

Heavily Armored, Highly Customizable

The kit features multipart plastic sprues, giving hobbyists freedom to assemble unique poses and weapon combinations. Each warrior is clad in heavy mail and plate armor, complete with visored helmets and detailed shields. The realistic proportions and clean sculpting match the rest of the Oathmark human range, allowing seamless integration with existing units.

For painters, this set is a dream project: broad armor panels perfect for metallic drybrushing, and enough surface texture to experiment with rust, grime, or heraldic designs. Whether you want to field them as royal guards or grizzled mercenaries, the versatility of this plastic kit makes it a strong addition to any collection.

Hobby and Gameplay Relevance

In skirmish-scale games, these models shine as elite captains, bodyguards, or veteran knights—tougher and more imposing than regular troops. Their classic design also makes them excellent bases for conversions or fantasy RPG characters.

With their clean detail, heavy armor, and modular design, Oathmark’s new Human Heavy Infantry look ready to march across battlefields large and small — a perfect blend of rank-and-file tradition and hobbyist freedom.
