My new markers

In an effort to stop me forgetting things, I have made the first few of my new design for condition markers, for Infantry, Vehicles, and Pain Tokens.

Vehicle version has shaken, stunned, immobilised, wrecked; infantry has pinned, snap fire, falling back and no assault; DEldar one counts pain tokens, and reminds me what they confer!

They are made of 10mm square section PVC tube, with tape from a hand-held printer. If I like them, and my friends do to, I will order some custom-coloured tape for different armies.
I have a game tomorrow, so I will start to get an idea of how many I need of each.

not bad, but this isn't very creative, unless your just using these to keep track then I would suggest more creativity

Very functional.

Agreed, well done. My aging brain needs a few of these too.

When I first started gaming my Marines were grey, my scouts camouflaged, my dice heavily stylised, and my objective markers matched my scenery. After a while I came to realise that my units forgot to move and fire, as I overlooked them, that bright, clear dice are a LOT more readable, and that a flickering LED candle for an objective is hard to fail to notice!
In an effort to reduce the amount of brain effort needed to remember ongoing conditions, thus freeing me up for tactical thought, my markers are bold, my dice are bright, and my new DE army is resplendent in bright reds and golds, Wyches with white undercoat, and a proper fluorescent fitting over the table!

My painting sucks anyway, my battlefields are always a triumph of function over form!

oh I see, that would make sense, I forget pain tokens a lot
