CATALOGUE JANUARY – JUNE 2020 Greetings from Osprey!

2020 is set to be a very exciting year for Osprey, with a host of fantastic titles publishing throughout the year. Our new military fitness titleBe Para Fit (p.1) and its accompanying app are set to inspire beginners and aspiring Paras alike to journey towards elite fitness alongside former leader of Paratrooper selection Major Sam McGrath.

In the gripping Blood, Metal and Dust (p.2), Brigadier Ben Barry offers an explosive insight into the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, providing a detailed account of events on the ground during the conflicts. Given the ongoing scrutiny of the role of female soldiers in these and other conflicts, Julie Wheelwright’s Sisters in Arms (p.2) is a timely and relevant exploration of the history of female soldiers across the centuries which challenges the contemporary relationship between masculinity and combat.

Tapping into the desire for alternative perspectives in military history, both The Devil’s Bridge (p.4) and To Defeat the Few (p.4) explore key aspects of World War II through the eyes of German forces. In the former, Anthony Tucker-Jones examines the battle for Arnhem, the result of the disastrous Allied Operation Market Garden, whilst the latter, by Paul Crickmore and Doug Dildy is a fascinating analysis of the Battle of Britain from the perspective of the Luftwaffe.

Osprey Games also has a selection of exciting new releases this year, including Oathmark (p.26), a mass-battle fantasy wargame, and Letterpress (p.24). a clever card game for witty wordsmiths. Fans of Frostgrave (p.27) are set to enter the Frozen City once again with a revised and expanded edition of the multi-award-winning wargame, whilst Judge Dredd: Helter Skelter players will be able to adventure solo with the new Dark Judges expansion (p.25).

Enjoy!

Empires have fallen, and the land is broken. The great oathmarks that once stood as testaments to the allegiances and might of nations have crumbled into ruin. In this lost age, fealty and loyalty are as valuable as gold and as deadly as cold iron, and war is ever-present.

Created by Joseph A. McCullough, designer of Frostgrave and Frostgrave: Ghost Archipelago, Oathmark is a mass-battle fantasy wargame that puts you in command of the fantasy army you’ve always wanted, whether a company of stalwart dwarves or a mixed force with proud elves, noble men, and wild goblins standing shoulder-to-shoulder in the battle-line. Fight through an integrated campaign system and develop your realms from battle to battle, adding new territories, recruiting new troop types, and growing to eclipse your rivals… or lose what you fought so hard to gain and fall as so many would-be emperors before you.
