The third supplement for Oathmark: Battles of the Lost Age includes numerous scenarios, rules for special formations and rules for narrative events and the passage of time that can affect the armies of a kingdom.

Time is the bane of all kings. Always does it march forward, bringing change and challenges, wars and disasters, invaders and internal rebellion. This supplement for Oathmark: Battles of the Lost Age, focuses on the passage of time and its effect on a players kingdom. While wars and battle still determine their ultimate fate, many other events can affect the armies of a kingdom. Plagues and blights can reduce access to soldiers from specific territories. Attempted coups can cost a king some of his best generals. On the other hand, unexpected alliances might give a kingdom access to unusual troops, or the birth of a new heir might bring wondrous presents.

Along with the rules for the passing of years, this book also presents the option to train your units to fight in special formations, such as phalanxes, shield walls, and skirmish lines. These will allow players to use their existing armies to try out new strategies and tactics to swing their battle in their favor. This book also includes several new military expeditions, including numerous scenarios, to once again challenge a player's generalship.

“An amazing card game that is so full of depth and replayability, tons of variety and also an incredibly strong thematic groundwork that everything is built on. It's an incredible labor of love.” - Rahdo Runs Through

“The book is well done and visually appealing.” - Must Contain Minis

“Oathmark still stands out very nicely as a great mass battle game to dive into. My local store has gone mad for it and they're looking to run a grand campaign for the game later this Summer which was neat to see. I think they've managed to hit the sweet spot of a mass battle Fantasy game in the rank-and-flank style” - OnTabletop
