Title: Best Place to get Blast / Template / Status markers / Components in general?
Post by: Stormwind on February 15, 2012, 09:24:56 PM

For a long long while now - I've been looking at different places that make dice and markers / icons.

At first it was for additions to Space Hulk or for components for custom games / home made games - but since right now I am desperately trying to get into SG stuff - but don't have ANY boxed games of any kind to supply - well, even any D6 dice!  That's how hard up I am!  ;D

So I don't have any templates or blast markers or order icons --- and since I'm mostly interested in Epic, Warmaster and Gothic, some advice would be appreciated.

I know that technically you can use all sorts of ramshackle things - and print out templates and such, but I'd love to have a solid "core" of components which look good to help entice people into SG generally.

http://www.litko.net/ is a place I am seriously considering for a whole load of blast mark / broken unit tokens for Epic...  Any happy / unhappy customers out there?

I use Litko's blastmarkers for Epic, these ones:

I think they're great, and their other markers look good too.

Thanks!

They do look good - but the thing I am not sure about is - there are several different sizes.  Do you bother using a larger one to indicate 3 or 5 blast markers?  Or do you just use those "Small" ones in a large quantity?

Thanks for the help!

i use them (regardless of size) with a small dice to mark out the quantity of  BM in epic. They're nice for BFG as well where they represent a single BM.
